This doesn't just affect -CURRENT: it happened to me on -STABLE last week, so I'm copying that list too.

Mine wandered from 117 to 147, with PageDown ("Next") as collateral damage. It seems that there are a lot of strange new key bindings (partial output of xmodmap -pk): 117 0xff56 (Next) 0x0000 (NoSymbol) 0xff56 (Next) 130 0xff31 (Hangul) 0x0000 (NoSymbol) 0xff31 (Hangul) 131 0xff34 (Hangul_Hanja) 0x0000 (NoSymbol) 0xff34 (Hangul_Hanja) 135 0xff67 (Menu) 0x0000 (NoSymbol) 0xff67 (Menu) 147 0x1008ff65 (XF86MenuKB) 0x0000 (NoSymbol) 0x1008ff65 (XF86MenuKB) Some of these may reflect other remappings that I have done.> I hope this email saves somebody else from the frustrating > morning I had...Sorry. I should have thought of reporting it. For me, with a number of other issues, it was a frustrating week,some of which are still not resolved. Greg -- Sent from my desktop computer.

There's been several reports, and suggested solutions to this, as well as an UPDATING entry detailing the change. I'm sorry that it has caused fallout, but it is something that needs to be done in order to keep up with upstream graphics stack, and to improve FreeBSD desktop support in general. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196678 has some discussions regarding input devices, as does the x11@ mailing list archives.
