It was working fine before the upgrade of libxfce4menu. It is working 
fine now after I have patched in the removed line discussed in the above PR.


$ setxkbmap -query
rules:      evdev
model:      pc105
layout:     se

I have no special X11 config files, except for some settings for my 
touchpad.

My .xinitrc just contains a single line: 'xfce4-session'


I had a look a x11-servers/xorg-server because I felt it should have 
UDEV enabled by default, and found why it is not:

In the Makefile there is this:

OPTIONS_DEFAULT_FreeBSD_11=     DEVD
OPTIONS_DEFAULT_FreeBSD_12=     UDEV
OPTIONS_DEFAULT_FreeBSD_13=     UDEV
OPTIONS_DEFAULT+=       ${OPTIONS_DEFAULT_${OPSYS}_${OSREL:R}}


There is no OPTIONS_DEFAULT_FreeBSD_14=     UDEV
