Comment (by JustinVallon@…):

 xkbcomp is listed in "leaves" (unrequested and not a dependent).
 Uninstalling it breaks the server, and gives the "Failed to activate core
 devices.".

 I replaced xkbcomp with a shell script that pauses, and it shows X11.app
 calling the following (as reported by ps, might have been truncated):

 /bin/sh /opt/local/bin/xkbcomp -w 1 -R/opt/local/share/X11/xkb -xkm - -em1
 The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: -emp >  -eml Errors from
 xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server /tmp/server-4.xkm

 Replacing xkbcomp with a script "exit 1" causes the server to fail with
 the indicated message.

 Let me know if you want more info.
