After updating udev to 107, during startup and shutdown I get numerous (over 100) messages similar to the following: udevd-event[3543]: run_program: exec of program '/lib/udev/udev_run_devd' failed

udev-107 does install a rules-file with commented entry to execute udev_run_devd in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules. So it is NOT run by default (and is no longer installed with udev-107). Perhaps you forgot to update your conf-files by etc-update/dispatch-conf.
As said above, the rules entry is commented out, so it definitely doesn't get run if you upgrade udev properly.
(In reply to comment #2) > As said above, the rules entry is commented out, so it definitely doesn't get > run if you upgrade udev properly. Same problem here. Honestly, I don't understand what is happening: # ebuild /usr/portage/sys-fs/udev/udev-107.ebuild install [...] # ls -l /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules /var/tmp/portage/sys-fs/udev-107/image/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11427 Mar 25 12:33 /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11023 Mar 25 12:52 /var/tmp/portage/sys-fs/udev-107/image/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules # ebuild /usr/portage/sys-fs/udev/udev-107.ebuild merge [...] >>> Merging sys-fs/udev-107 to / [...] >>> /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules [...] >>> Safely unmerging already-installed instance...
