Wow..  I totally didn't expect this.

It actually IS working again with in the 14.04 Trusty

It seems the reason why it's not crashing anymore is this snippet from the xorg 
logfile
MACH64(0): Direct rendering is not supported for ATI chips earlier than the ATI 
3D Rage Pro.
MACH64(0): Render acceleration disabled

It can do Xv video at 720x576   (even though that makes running glxgears
drop to from 32 to 5 FPS)
