Did a followup on my previous situation.

I was getting *A LOT* of "Fake start-stop-daemon called. Doing nothing." during the boot process.
Since start-stop-daemon belongs to dpkg pkg, I forced a re-install of dpkg from the 'current' snapshot.

*SHARAM* All problems solved. Machine booted in a few seconds.

I believe the dist-upgrade process got thumbled up somewhere, on the dpkg upgrade procedure...
Since no daemons started on account of the dummy start-stop-daemon, all other stuff - includind udev - was hung up.

Hope this help all you guys (or at least some).
