To save someone the trouble of hunting this down, the evdev module
gets built/installed if multimedia/v4l_compat is installed.
pulseaudio's looks for linux/input.h to decide whether to build the
evdev module.

As such, the existence of linux/input.h is not really a good
indication of a working evdev.

In any case, the patch to hard-code evdev in pkg-plist is not
appropriate at this time since installations that don't have
multimedia/v4l_compat will have a broken plist as well (the evdev
module won't be installed but the plist will say it is).

An alternate workaround would be to add the attached hunk to
files/patch-configure to forcibly tell it there is no evdev on
freebsd...
