I reverted this commit yesterday in
8c483c12e94bcf43e4c44170f1d5fea5fbba4970 due to deadlocks happening at
boot time and reported in <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/76315>.

I started investigating; it would seem to be a timing/scheduling issue
that shows up when eudev starts.  Adding a simple ‘format’ call in the
‘start’ method of eudev appears to “fix” the problem.

(Never encountered this on my laptop over 6+ months of ‘system-log’
usage…)

To be continued…

Ludo’.
