Oh God, I must have been suffering brain fade.  Thanks for making me aware of 
the obvious.

A little experimentation created the stand-alone hibernation partition 
diskette from stndalhd.exe.  Who ever heard of "forcedos?"  I have now.

The stand-alone utility blew away booteasy, which I've previously used to 
select Win2k or FreeBSD, and left me with an MBR that chose Win2k without 
asking.  The FreeBSD 4.7 fixit CD and sysinstall fixed that.

The good news is that FreeBSD sleep works with lid closing and with Fn-F4, and 
hibernation works with Fn-F12.  Unfortunately, when it wakes up from 
hibernation, the Xserver is hung, and has to be restarted with 
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace.

Any ideas as to what might be giving X heartburn?
