Probably something like -display :0.0
although you'll want to call:
xhost local:

before doing so.  This assumes you're on the latest xorg of course.

That indicates a whole other problem.  You must have linked to an
older version of libutil when you built xorg.  I have
/lib/libutil.so.4, not 3.  

BTW, what version of Xorg *are* you running?  What version of FreeBSD?
I must have missed it in your previous messages.
