Apparently there's a generic X memory corruption bug triggered by the
x11perf command I gave (I can crash Xephyr with it). When X crashes out
rather than freezing, it's because of that. So it turns out this isn't a
good test of the driver.

I did witness freezing in some scenarios with this command:
x11perf -range srect10,srect500 -time 1 -repeat 1

And I was not able to observe any memory corruption with the above
command, only the freezing. So this is a better test.

Robbielink, no regressions have been reported so far with
2.8.0-8-g12c5aec. There was a report of a crash with the earlier x11perf
command, but it turns out that isn't caused by the driver. It's an X bug
that randomly may or may not trigger.
