Did some tests during the weekend, incluidng using a LiveUSB persistent
environment of Fedora 9 which comes with XServer 1.4.99 and XF86-video-ati
driver version 6.8.0

Xorg -version

X.Org X Server 1.4.99.901 (1.5.0 RC 1)
Release Date: 5 September 2007
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.18-53.1.14.el5xen i686 
Current Operating System: Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 #1 SMP
Thu May 1 06:28:41 EDT 2008 i686
Build Date: 06 May 2008  03:35:07PM
Build ID: xorg-x11-server 1.4.99.901-29.20080415.fc9 
        Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
        to make sure that you have the latest version.
Module Loader present

Xorg.0.log

(II) Module ati: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 1.4.99.901, module version = 6.8.0
        Module class: X.Org Video Driver
        ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 4.0


This combination doesn't exhibit the problem of random crashes with EXA, though
I still experience (much more at random it would seem) crashes without EXA, and
having disabled Render acceleration. The only conclusion I can draw from this
is that when EXA is enabled, these crashes are much more defined, easily
reproducible and clear, and this has something to do with an interaction
between the XF86-video-ati driver and XServer 1.5.0, other than that, I'm lost.
>From what I have been able to see from other bug reports, it would seem that
this kind of problem is not local to the ati/radeonhd drivers, and affects also
other drivers, so this would seem more of an XServer/Xorg problem than a driver
isolated issue. However, I have no way to corroborate this assumption.
