Several years ago, I tried that.  Initially, I ran
into problems with inadequate busybox binaries and
had to replace several (including grep, which James 
also had to replace).  Eventually (after lots of 
fiddling) I got it to work.

In the end I decided it was too complicated and did
not document the steps I took.

One way to check whether Xvesa is at fault, is to run 
that wp8 installation without X and export the display 
to a different computer (running a real Xserver).  If
wp8 still generates a segfault then the problem lies
elsewhere.

Cheers,
