Thomas,

udev in latest distributions (IMHO beginning from FC5) uses uevent interface in sysfs to collect information about devices that it should create.
Uevent interface is a relative new feature and only latest linux kernels support it.
Sysfs support inside VE is very restricted -- each sysfs entry eats some system resources and we're try do not add any new sysfs entries needlessly.

When udev inside VE udev cannot find device with uevent it decided that it has been executed on old kernel without Uevent support and complains "kernel too old for this udev".

thank you,
Vasily Averin
