But that library isn't automatically loaded (ie a static runtime
dependency) by either the X server or radeon_drv.so so it may have
been a dlopen() issue.  I haven't re-tested since re-building since
I didn't want to have to reboot and radeon wasn't a high priority
(my GPU is supposed to be supported by radeonhd).

That's a useful datapoint.  Possibly it's an interaction between X and
-current.

A fresh install of X onto an Aspire One (Intel i945GME) behaved in
exactly the same manner using both the VESA and i915 drivers. I have
tried rebuilding Xserver with and without HAL, I've tried disabling
DRM and disabling acceleration.

So far, the only thing that has worked is to revert xorg-server and
the x11-drivers ports to 1st April (though I lose DRM access on the
Radeon HD2400).
