As it happens, I solved this problem myself and am now posting this
message for the xpert archive.

It turns out that Matrox has a very informative support forum at

http://forum.matrox.com/cgi-bin/mgaforum/search.cgi?action=intro&default=2

If you search for "G200 MMS" there, a lot of problem reports and their
respective solutions are available. In my case, it turned out that switching
to XFree 4.0.3 and the 1.3.0 beta driver was necessary. The above described
situation was most likely caused by a bug in their newest (1.43) driver.
