As an update on this, with XFRee86 3.2.2 installed. I can run X in the
SVGA server, but not as the Mach64 server. Here is the output of the
startx command (Modeline whinings trimmed):

XFree86 Version 3.3.2 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6300)
Release Date: March 2 1998
        If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer
        than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting
        problems.  (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)
Operating System: OpenBSD 2.2 i386 
Configured drivers:
  Mach64: accelerated server for ATI Mach64 graphics adaptors (Patchlevel
0)
Using pcvt driver (version 3.32)
