It looks like radeontool fails silently, instead of telling the user to run it under sudo.  I also had to escape the asterisk to pass it to radeontool:
sudo radeontool match \*

Here's my radeontool output on 2.6.34-rc5 kernel from kernel-ppa -- this
is the "broken" case.

I can't seem to recall a time it ever did work with the open-source
drivers (either UMS or KMS).
