Unfortunately, I wasn't that lucky.
If I try 'startx' with my old /etc/X11/xorg.conf file I get this i /var/log/xorg.0.log:

and I don't undertand that one, since the libpcidata is there:
root at kg-g4# ls -l /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/libpci*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel      817 Nov  9 20:32 /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/libpcidata.la
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1237921 Nov  9 20:32 /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/libpcidata.so

/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/libpcidata.so: ELF 32-bit MSB shared object, PowerPC or cisco 4500, version 1 (FreeBSD), not stripped

Strange.
If I rename the xorg.conf file, and try 'X -configure' as root, that fails too.
 The last lines of /var/log/Xorg.0.log is:
(II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets: vesa
(II) VGA: Generic VGA driver (version 4.1) for chipsets: generic
(WW) xf86EnableIO 5

(WW) Can't map IO space!
(II) Primary Device is: PCI 00:10:0
(EE) No devices detected.

Fatal server error:

Ouch!

I have this gfx card:
root at kg-g4# pciconf -lv | grep -B 4 VGA
vgapci0 at pci0:0:16:0:    class=0x030000 card=0xa5b80208 chip=0x011010de rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Nvidia Corp'
    device     = 'NV11 GeForce2 MX / MX 400'
    class      = display
    subclass   = VGA
