Seems like it is just version-updated to non-working one without 
consulting testing.
Or at least without solution for all existing users.

Cleaning up hipster-2015 to the old one with old version, seems nicest 
solution,
with ability to add new one for testing.
Even if it start suddenly working with illumos patched with KMS, it is 
not solution for present installs and all with not newest Intel graphics.
Yet, Ken has all that in mind.
