Under 8.4.6 on all platforms, I still see:

  15:23 xss disabling server builtin screensaver.
  15:23 xss: you can re-enable it with "xset s on".

I think this could be disappeared by changing xsession to run

  xset s 0 0

instead of 

  xset s off

at least on solaris and linux.  (From "xset q" it looks like off only
sets timeout:0, and xss also wants to have cycle:0.  On irix though, it
looks like xss resets it to 600 0.)
