So it looks like at least some of the issues you reported boil down to AccelDFS
being broken on your setup.

Can you try if the radeon kernel module built from
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/drm fixes the AccelDFS issues?

This is because anti-aliased font rendering is accelerated whereas aliased font
rendering is not (which BTW is fixed in current upstream xserver Git).
