systemd does not support being built statically[1], which means that, prior to this patch, nothing that depends on udev can be built statically. libudev-zero is a daemonless implementation of libudev, that supports being built statically. So, by setting udev to be libudev-zero when systemd is unavailable, we can get static builds of packages like linuxPackages.usbip. [1]: systemd/systemd#20600 (comment)
