Although using UXA I'm not experiencing any freezes so far (tried
repro.sh for 10 minutes, while opening firefox a few dozen times), I
found what I did wrong (or right) to not have the bug, and how to
reproduce again.

While reinstalling ubuntu, first thing I did was following LP #359392
instructions on how to reproduce and installed repro.sh. However I
inadvertently installed also the intel-gpu-utils from the repos:

By doing this change, libdrm2 and libdrm-intel1 get replaced by a newer
development version (2.4.9-build1) which does not reproduces the bug.
Please install intel-gpu-utils and see if you are still experiencing the
problem.

Add the following repositories to ->/etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-freeze-test/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-x-swat/x-freeze-test/ubuntu jaunty main

and do a:
# sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 
643dc6bd56580ceb1ab4a9f63b22ab97af1cdfa9
# sudo apt-get install intel-gpu-utils

reboot, activate either UXA or EXA in xorg.conf and try.
