After checking carefully the aptitude log, I have found that
xserver-xorg-{core,common} were updated yesterday morning.

This part of the changelog might be of interest:
  * 15-keep-udev-x11-driver.diff: keep looking for the x11_driver udev
    property as a transitional measure.  This should allow the new server to
    work while drivers aren't transitioned to xorg.conf.d yet.

After downgrading these packages to the previous version (2:1.7.6-1),
things work fine again.

I hence reassign this bug to xserver-xorg-core (feel free to change it
if that's not right).

To xserver-xorg-core maintainers: my local udev rules file which lets me
set the correct options to the synaptics driver doesn't seem to be taken
into account in the last version available in sid, despite the
15-keep-udev-x11-driver.diff patch.

Cheers,
Julien
