I have finally switched to codrv and have XFree86-1.3 now working under 386bsd-0.2.4. 

One thing does not yet work for me: switching consoles via ALT-F1/F4 (e.g.)

I have 

ttyv0   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" pc3     on secure
ttyv1   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" pc3     on secure
ttyv2   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" pc3     on secure
ttyv3   "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" pc3     on secure

in my /etc/ttys file but when I try to switch consoles I only get an echo of a
Ce-dee (french character).

Also I don't see the other three getty processes.
