 It's been 17 days and the packages for latest have been rebuilt on the
24th, people don't upgrade every week on current. Also since it's
broken on quarterly all users of releng branch using it won't see this
problem.

 A rollback to 122 "fixes" the issue so it's unlikekly that it's
another factor.

 I think that it would be good that you setup a quick wayland env, the
handbook is pretty good on how to do this and we want wayland to be a
first class citizen on FreeBSD (it's already is tbh, most drm
developers on FreeBSD use wayland only already).

 It's broken on all my desktop running main-3733d82c4deb, it's also
broken for bapt@ who is the one made me aware of this issue in the
first place.

 No idea no, if you have any tips to debug such large program I'm happy
to dig more.
