problem with nvidia graphics card and -current

I was setting up a system today with an nvidia Geforce4-MX 440
graphics card. I am not at the system at the moment but the -current
sources were from about 2:00 PM CDT. I installed the nvidia-driver
port (1.0.4365) trying various combinations of WITH_FREEBSD_AGP,
FORCE_AGP_RATE, and WITH_NVIDIA_HACKS. I get the same result. The
first time an X server is started, everything works fine, including glx
loading. After exiting the X session and shutting down the server and
then at some point later starting the X server again, the system will
freeze. No messages, no panic, nothing. The only thing to do is hit
the reset button.
Any ideas? I saw some discussion about kernel changes made for wine and
nvidia but I am not sure if that is relevant in my case.
Thanks.
