Well, I rebuilt the X server, commenting out the DoLoadableServer NO line
from host.def.  And, once again, the server crashed as soon as I tried to
run gkrellm, though I had no problems running gkrellm or kde with the
static server.

I took Eric suggestion and built gdb52 from the ports tree.  Running xinit
with gdb attached, and doing a backtrace after the crash, gives me:

(gdb) bt
#0  0x2816ca18 in sigsuspend () from /usr/lib/libc.so.4
#1  0x8049497 in sigprocmask ()
#2  0x8049100 in sigprocmask ()
#3  0x8048c2d in sigprocmask ()

I'm not very familiar with gdb, so let me know if there's something else I
should try.
