When you installed XFree86-4 you should have seen this message:
************************************************************************
* To improve security, the X server is installed without an SUID bit.  *
* This is suitable for use with xdm, but not with a startx script.     *
* If you need to use a startx script, install the x11/wrapper package. *
************************************************************************
* If XFree86-4 is not a basic part of your operating system, add the   *
* following line to /etc/make.conf: XFREE86_VERSION=4                  *
************************************************************************
I guess it clear from here how to tell the system that you are using 
XFree86-4.
