Doh!  Sorry about that.
Thanks for pointing that out.  Here is the output from the correct command :)

mako# su - root -c "/usr/X11R6/bin/xinit
/usr/X11R6/firefox/lib/firefox-1.0/run-mozilla.sh
/usr/X11R6/lib/firefox-1.0/firefox-bin --install-global-extension
/usr/X11/bin/Xvfb :1001"


Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
        If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
        and start again.


Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support
         at http://wiki.X.Org
 for help.

giving up.
/usr/X11R6/bin/xinit:  unable to connect to X server

And here is the output from the command line, no xserver running:

waiting for X server to shut down


Ok... my root path is the following:

path    (/sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/games /usr/local/sbin
/usr/local/bin /usr/X11R6/bin /root/bin)

Also, just in case it makes a difference, here is my /etc/make.conf file:

mako# cat /etc/make.conf
CPUTYPE=athlon
CFLAGS= -O -pipe
NOPROFILE=true
X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xorg
NO_LPR=true

# -- use.perl generated deltas -- #

Thanks again for the help!
