While waiting in vain for a response, I resorted to reading
/usr/ports/UPDATING and the install message for xorg-server.
After installing x11-drivers/xf86-input-libinpout and making sure
kern.evdev.rcpt_mask was set correctly, my problem was fixed.
Let this be a lesson to me!-- George

This question would be both more appropriate and more likely to get a
knowledgeable response if submitted to x11@. X is not part of the base
system although a base system upgrade did trigger the problem.

No, they are needed.

You mentioned that you build the x11 stuff on 11.3. I do not know
if this works, I have my doubts.

I use:

yes | make delete-old

I'm guessing: Do you have the dbus and hald daemon running ?

hald_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"

in /etc/rc.conf ?
