I'm trying the following:

\begin{document}
\noindent\vbox{%
\vskip0bp%vertical shift
\hskip0bp%horizontal shift
\fbox{\vbox to 5in{\hbox to 4in {X}}}
}
\end{document}
but the box begins at ~19.925bp from the left edge --- I could stick in
a manual \hskip-19.925bp fudge factor, but would prefer to understand
why the above doesn't fill a page and what would be the correct way to
make it do so.
Well, 19.925bp is just 20pt, which is the normal \parindent inserted
by \hskip, which starts a paragraph. Remember that also \fbox starts a
paragraph.
If you want to move a box in vertical mode there is \moveright.
