Default Xorg hangs on startup on 5.6+ with Intel HD 4400

Does anyone else experience this issue?

I've mailed the info on a possible bug to the OpenBSDs 'misc' list several days ago, but since there was not a single reply yet, I assume it might be quite rare.

Since I cannot post links on this forum just yet, here is an excerpt from my aforementioned report:

Quote:
Everything worked fine on my Acer Aspire V5-573G laptop with
5.5-release, but starting with 5.6-release and on with the latest
current 5.7-snapshot as of 19-Jan-2015 22:17, Xorg hangs on startup. I
get a black screen and no keys seem work whatsoever. Therefore, I have
to do a hard reboot.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Make a vanilla install of the aforementioned OpenBSD version to a USB-stick
2. Boot into the installed OS, login as a regular user
3. $ startx
All the needed dmesg and Xorg logs are there, but if anyone is interested, I can post them here as well.
