Dunno how -fglrx handles it, but there are situations sort of akin to this in
-intel that are handled by quirks, implemented in
xf86-video-intel/src/i830_quirks.c.  There is a 'quirk_flag' added to the pI830
structure, and then quirks are applied on a per-PCIID basis in the
i830_quirk_list[] structure.

This approach is nice from the distro standpoint because as we run across new
hardware requiring that particular tweak, we can add support for that HW with
one line of (non-executable) code - which is also easy to justify to folks for
backporting as well.
