(I guess that leads to another question, i.e. should we be building xserver-xorg-video-intel with --enable-valgrind by default? It looks like the change was added in 2:2.21.14-1, although due to the above typo xxv-intel in both sid and experimental have always been built with --disable-valgrind, and that's also the upstream default.) > BTW, do you think it's ok to upload an updated xserver-xorg-video-intel > package to the wheezy-backports repository?

Perhaps someone on the list may be interested in doing so? If not, you can always ask around on [email protected]. I don't really have the time to maintain a backport of xxv-intel, and that's just one small piece out of all the userspace components that are candidates for being backported (I presume that you want these backports for improved hardware support?). It's also worth noting that your link above suggests that you've backported the current xxv-intel package in experimental, whereas only packages in testing are eligible to be backported via debian-backports.
