I don't think backing this change out is a good idea for master. xf86ProcessActionEvent is a specific API that used to be called from the kbd driver only - and this code has been removed in favour of XKB processing. A grep on my xorg/ tree shows that none of the maintained input drivers use this API now. So right now, even bringing it back doesn't help you since the kbd driver doesn't call the API anyway, and evdev never has. Indeed, time is better spent fixing this correctly - as Daniel said with a new XKB action - and hooking this action up in the right places. Owen suggested that for Qt and GDK there's workarounds to enable debugging. They don't work for you?
