Currently the libxcb update is causing me major headaches. Most of my
machines I ignore the update, but my work machine is halfway through
and some of my important apps still aren't working (I can't even get
tiff to compile). :/
xf86-input-evdev 2.1.3 causes X to crash within a few seconds, but
that's only on one machine, I haven't tested the others. I recall
hearing that 2.y branches from X.org, if y is odd, are the 'devel'
branch, so we may want to avoid those.
