Thanks to Robert for pointing out a few things to me.

I have run

    portupgrade -rf libxcb


I normally run portupgrade -WrRpPa
This is what I ran and it totally hosed my system.
I had to revert back to an earlier version to be able to
bring X back up.

This should have compiled and built everything that was affected
by the new X stuff - but it obviously didn't.

and it rebuilt quite a few pieces that had not been rebuilt in the standard portupgrade that gave me X.org 7.4 in the first place.

After rebuilding firefox and a bunch of smaller libraries, my keyboard and mouse work, and so does firefox and my other apps.

Thanks to everyone else for emailing me with ideas and suggestions!

Dan
