I appreciate your suggestion.  The system referred to above is a 68030
(GVP accelerator with scsi and 16M RAM).

I can properly start X from the command prompt, both root and non-root
users with the startx command, now.  I am thinking that the issue is
that the X log in program is not starting properly on the console
screen, and hence X aborts.  I say this because I get the same signal 7
message in my XFree86.0.log when I exit my X session that I started with
the startx command.  This is where I plan to look next barring better
ideas from the group.
