For what it's worth, this fixed it.

laptop:/etc/X11# apt-get remove xserver-xfree86
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  s3savage-driver xserver-xfree86

laptop:/etc/X11# apt-get install xserver-xfree86

Perhaps the s3savage-driver package was conflicting.

Now I only see one line like:

 (II) SAVAGE(0): vgaHWGetIOBase: hwp->IOBase is 0x03d0, hwp->PIOOffset is 0x0000

I wonder why I'm seeing all the lines like:

  (II) SAVAGE(0): Not using default mode "640x350" (vrefresh out of range)

when my config file only defines one mode.  Of course, there's lots of
things to wonder about.  Anyway, seems fixed.
