Turns out that the reason that sysinstall wouldn't install XF86 for me
was that ftp4.freebsd.org has a broken link for /pub/FreeBSD/2.2-RELEASE/XF8632.
sysinstall simply presented me with a blank blue screen for a few seconds
and then went on, without giving me any kind of error message (and even
though I turned on debugging in the options menu, I don't know where to
look for it; it's not on VTY2).

So, sysinstall needs to learn how to report errors, and ftp4.freebsd.org
needs to get a fixed XF86.
