The 'good old' driver uses generic nForce AGP interface.  If the 
driver really works, I will be surprised.  I admit agp_amd64.c 
requires more work (esp. chipset-specific handling including nForce) 
but I had no time/hardware.

Anyway you have to make sure agp(4) really works for you.

Have you tried xorg-server-snap?  If it doesn't work, can you try 
this?
