Thanks Peter.  That is, I think, the way to do it in XeLaTeX.  I am using 
plain XeTeX and don't at the moment want to get into the LaTeX environment 
in XeTeX.

Does this work better?

\begin{tikzpicture}
  \draw (-1.5,0) -- (1.5,0);
  \draw (0,-1.5) -- (0,1.5);
\end{tikzpicture}

A file (..../tex/generic/pgf/systemlayer/)pgfsys-xetex.def is also
needed. Otherwise you'd need to tell XeTeX

\def\pgfsysdriver{<driver>}

*before* you load TikZ. A suitable driver is dvipdfm.
