As of r271160, startup does not have a problem with devd.  Only tested 
once, though.

We really should do something to fix this X11 server crash!

The patch I suggested in PR 193192 (a duplicate of 191459, which
perhaps should be merged into 191459, but I have no idea whether
that is possible with bugzilla), removes just the offending keys
from the map.

https://bz-attachments.freebsd.org/attachment.cgi?id=146584&action=diff&context=patch&format=raw

This will e.g. remove the Euro sign (0x20ac), but lead to an
otherwise usable keyboard in a *working* X session.

My suggested patch is just a work-around, no real fix, but it
will help avoid people wasting lots of time trying to understand
why their X server suddenly stops to work.

Since I'm in part responsible for the crashes (by committing
actual vt keymaps, that use Unicode code points >= 0x100), I'd
really like to get this fixed, before people testing the 10.1
pre-releases think that X11 has been completely broken.


Is there really nobody on the x11 list, who wants to commit this
simple patch, to stop people wasting their time or becoming
frustrated because of the X11 server crash???

It is just a work-around, but a very necessary one!!!
