x11-base/xorg-server-1.19.6 is affected by https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104382, which makes it freeze and turn into a black screen (recoverable by killing the session which will reset the vt) when used with libinput & udev discovery. Adding the proposed patch https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/196090/ which has been upstreamed fixes the issue. Suggesting to backport this into the current ebuild.
