Workaround to get interlaced PAL output using 6.7.196

At latest geexbox developer version , xorg has DRI stuff included and I no 
longer managed to compile 6.6.3 in it:-(
However, I stumbled on a workaround:
1) Start Xorg using  PAL interlaced setting. RGB output is like reported bug
2) use  
xrandr -display :0.0 -s 1 
to switch to different (also PAL interlaced) setting. Now RGB output is OK !
Even switching back to startup config using  xrandr -display :0.0 -s 0 , PAL 
output is valid!

I have these lines in my xorg.conf
HorizSync       15-16
VertRefresh     49-51
Modeline "PALWS" 24.75  1280 1321 1437 1584  576 580 585 625 -hsync -vsync 
interlace 
Modeline "PAL"   22.50  1152 1195 1301 1440  576 580 583 625 -hsync -vsync 
interlace

Intention of these 2 PAL modelines: My vga to scart convertor uses
vertical sync length (note 585 and 583 in Vertical part of modeline) to
switch the scart 16:9 pin.
