First, thanks to all for replies.  
Before I saw Alan's, and Till's replies I decided to try "pkg uninstall 
desktop/xscreensaver"
.  
I'd not done so, thinking it might cause some kind of unforeseen problems.  But 
it seemed to go off 
without problems.  Followed with reboot, and when it came back up all seems ok.
  
I left it long enough for locking to occur but it did not, so maybe it worked 
without problems
(fingers crossed)
