Eureka!  Now that I found it, it's kind of a duh!
The solution to getting the framebuffer to be created promptly is in the
bootlocal.sh script.  When jivelite was enabled, the modprobe settings
were placed at the end of bootlocal.sh after the call to
do_rebootstuff.sh, so since they aren't called yet the framebuffer isn't
created until after do_rebootstuff is finished in its entirety.  Moving
the modprobe commands to execute before do_rebootstuff.sh causes the
framebuffer to be created and the screen to switch over and the rest of
the boot/setup messages are then displayed on the TFT.

I still don't know why slimserver needed to be stopped under the prior
circumstances, but moving the modprobe commands to precede
do_rebootstuff.sh negates the problem.

Hope this helps others
