It will work without it.

you need to specify Option "AutoAddDevices" "off" in the ServerLayout
section of your xorg.conf.

You can also disable the HAL option when building the server, but you
still need the above I believe.  I think it has been fixed in git so
that if HAL is not configured that the defaults revert to the old
behavior.
