 Moved the symlink from /usr/X11R6/bin/Xwrapper to XFree86, and voila:

[baz@flux baz]$ X -version

XFree86 Version 4.0.1a / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6400)
Release Date: 2 August 2000
	If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer
	than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting
	problems.  (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)
Operating System: Linux 2.2.5-22smp i686 [ELF] 
Module Loader present
[baz@flux baz]$ 

We have success!

 Cheers, Craig, Will and Richard S!

 Baz.
