OK, not all block devs have been set up apparently.

OK, so it should work.

Your /etc/udev/rules.d/40-xen.rules
should point to /sbin/xen-vbd and xen-vif; you could add logger calls
there, so you can see what hotplug events reached your dom0 in the
syslog.

That's correct as well, as udevd already eats all the hotplug events.
But my fear is that the events just don't arrive :-(
