[PATCH] udev - man page update
Hey it's not longer the "goal" to provide a dynamic dev directory,
we have just arrived. So I change it to more self-confident words :)
I've also added the completly missing environment variables to the
man pages.
To stop the misuse of the PROGRAM= call paramenters, we better mention
its limitations.
