I keep wlroots on the compatible > release instead. I was not suggesting doing it in pkgsrc, just as another way for you to find out what has changed in the API that means that wlroots requires a newer version of libdrm. I have found the interface between libdrm and the kernel to be a bit fragile, my best guess is that it usually works for X11 because more than one client gets started together. Maybe it is fine with Wayland too. I see that mrg@ has updated the native version of libdrm.
