 Just a note that both of these appear to be Mesa bugs.  On the 7500
I see an assertion failure, and I've got a bt but bisecting and
raising a bug for that will have to wait until after I'm done with
the 9200se.  At the moment I'm running my old script for bisecting,
 and doing it in the console (since I rebuild both Mesa and
xorg-server), but with kms the output to the console is *slow*
(about 30 minutes to rebuild Mesa and xorg-server) so it will
probably be a couple more days of rebuilds to find where I'm
going to pin the blame.

 Interestingly, in the 9200se bisect I'm currently at a stage where
glxgears runs, but crashes with the same assertion failure as on the
7500 when I resize it.
