Brilliant! Worked for me too with unpatched cairo-1.12.2. My xorg-server
*is* built with HAL but I don't think that has any influence on the
Intel driver problem. Prior to the explicit XAA config in my Intel
Device Section, /var/log/Xorg.0.log showed that the method was
defaulting to EXA and X would freeze very soon after starting.

Thank you.
