I'm still running stable using the above kernel, however, I noticed X
requires more CPU than normal.  For example, running top with a refresh
of 1 second in a terminal window will cause X to use about 15% of the
CPU.  Even making small movements on the screen would cause X to use
even more CPU (50+%).

I installed the latest xserver-xorg-video-intel from ubuntu-x-swat
(which contains the 2.9 driver), and the system is performing a lot
better.  X only uses 1-2% in the "top" example above.  Moving windows
around the screen no longer stresses the system.  The system seems
pretty stable so far too.  Is there any chance of 2.9 going into Karmic
along with a back ported kernel fix from 2.6.32rc?
