Well it's critical that our computers return to a _bootable_ state and not 
locking up where everything, including the keyboard, is unresponsive.

May we at least get a workaround until the higher brains decide what to do?
I'd suggest either downgrading the kernel or forcing the vesa driver if 
you can live without accelerated video. Put this in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:


Section Device
Identifier foo
Driver vesa
EndSection
