There is another possibility:
Both drivers (radeon, radeonhd) have been performing pretty much
flawlessly with X server 1.4.
From drivers point of view main change during update to x server 1.5 is
migration from x server internal pci access
library to external libpciaccess, so it's possible that this error is
caused by difference in pci access libraries behavior.
