The command I used was: portmaster -w -r xorg-server The problem reported here now seems to be solved. I have a mouse again. I haven't tried Xorg -configure, but I've got fluxbox working from startx again. And I haven't tried gdm to see if all this latest has fixed whatever was wrong there. It does seem there are some gotchas with this latest version of Xorg. One is that it attempts to respond to my mismatched dual-head setup. It didn't get screen dimensions right at all and fell back to an ugly common denominator. It happens the big beautiful screen is destined for a server that should be arriving in a couple days anyway, so I'm just disconnecting it a bit early. The small notebook screen will suffice until then.
