This is a work-around and not a fix, but I added the line:
Option      "NoLineAccel"
to the "Device" section of my configuration file plus the cvs drivers
fixed the problem, although at the cost of loss of acceleration in
line drawing. For what I do, acceleration is not important. (I don't
play games.)

I hope the bug gets fixed, but this works more than well enough for
me.
