No. The exec line should be the last line in the file where you start your
wm, such as

exec /usr/bin/enlightenment

And you don't need the & on the line, since you can't background an exec'd
process.

xscreensaver &

should work. Why don't you post your .xinitrc file?
Here's mine:
xset -display :0.0 +dpms m 1 s off
xscreensaver &
xhost + local:
gkrellm&
exec /usr/bin/enlightenment
