Thank you for that clue!

Booting a laptop to main-n272615-f5a04b16b189, then checking
/usr/local/libexec/Xorg built under stable/14:

g1-48(15.0-C)[11] ldd /usr/local/libexec/Xorg | grep found
         libmd.so.6 => not found (0)

which would be why xdm stopped working under head as of yesterday (for
me)....


In case it's helpful, note that the .6 -> .7 bump didn't include any real ABI changes for the symbols that stuck around. In this specific case, one can safely symlink or libmap libmd.so.6 -> libmd.so.7 and rtld will DTRT to get you across the road until everything is rebuilt appropriately.

Hmmm... does this indicate that we are approaching a point where
creation (& maintenance) of a misc/compat14x port might be appropriate
(for those of us who (e.g.) might want to run ports under head that
were built under stable/14)?


Perhaps

Peace,
