We are preparing an update to xserver 1.14 with an improved devd
backend. All known issues are fixed in this newer version and devd is no
longer considered experimental. The update to xserver also enables devd
by default, replacing the HAL backend.

I believe a "Call for testers" will be published this week, after a
final Poudriere run.
