The fix for this bug should now be included in Lucid, so I'm closing
this bug report.

For the other crashes you are experiencing with blender 2.5, this bug
report should serve as a model for a new bug report. mistr has written
up how to git-bisect mesa in order to find the bad commit at [1] . Our
experience with this bug is that once the triggering commit is found,
upstream can fix it quickly. Of course it is possible that the crashes
with 2.5 are not due to mesa but an ati driver or something else, but
that should be clear from the full backtrace.

The hangs you are experiencing may be a GPU freeze (see [2]) or a kernel
problem. Also in this case, a bisect is usually what is needed to
resolve the problem (but possibly of the linux kernel or the ati
driver). This should also be reported in a new bug report.
