Yes, the patch was merged into stable/15.  It should not have
been!

It's not a big ask.  Either back out the commit or maybe,
just maybe, someone can commit the patch in PR290432.

There are dozens of pkg-fallout@ emails to freebsd-x11.
Many have a reply from me pointing to the patch in
PR290432.

So, either back out the patch that breaks X11 for many
people or commit the patch in the PR.
