D'oh. Sorry about that, it seems these have not reached the mailing list
indeed. Peter's suggestion
[email protected]
did reach the list:

“
so the solution here would be to only call xf86OpenConsole() when a
keyboard device comes up. on the plus side, if the evdev driver is
broken this would allow you to Ctrl+C the server. On the minus side,
there's a window where you can Ctrl+C the server until the device has
been added.
”

what didn't is my answer:
“
Ok ; that still needs to be implemented, and more importantly,
thoroughly tested, as in the past xf86OpenConsole() used to be done much
earlier.
