I have the same setup as Kim, for the same reasons. My SON hub has done somewhere North of 100,000 km and I've needed to use the headtorch for riding exactly twice in that time: once when the microswitch in the Schmidt light was "sticky" at the beginning of autumn, and once when I'd managed to snap the connector off the wire while changing a tube.
I'd say it's worth carrying something, but it only needs to be very basic for very rare use. Anything, however reliable, will fail at some point - LED lights last an extremely long time, but they will blow eventually.
