FreeBSD only packages XFree86 releases with our releases.  You are of
course welcome to pull and run other XFree developments yourself -- they
do build FreeBSD binaries.  I ran the 3.1.2 beta Xservers so my Mach64
would work properly, with no problems.

I would not run them uless you were having a problem, though.
