As a further datapoint for the archives, I just bumped into this on a
ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 (PCIE) with up-to-date ports
(dri-7.4.2_1,2, xf86-video-ati-6.12.2_1 and xorg-server-1.6.1,1) and
EXA acceleration.  It seems that the newer DRI needs a larger aperture
than the older DRI - when I doubled the aperture size in the BIOS (from
32MB to 64MB), the problem went away and DRI appears to work.
