With xorg-server being fixed to no longer FTBFS, there is no more
blocker for this transition afaics and we should be ready to go. We'd
appreciate if we can start this transition as soon as possible, as we
need a newer systemd in various other packages (among them GNOME 3.8).
Also, updating udev is long overdue.

Would be great if we can get an ack from the release team for the
unstable upload.

Cheers,
Michael
