The same message appears here on an install I did last Monday from the
4.6.2 CD-ROM using either a FQDN or the default FreeBSD nameless amnesiac.
I boot this box directly into kdm (the KDE flavor of xdm) and besides the
error message I see no harm, no foul. The Xserver (and the Desktop)
perform as expected.
