I agree with the Xinerama link, although I don't know what the
underlying mechanism is yet. There is also a strong suggestion of a link
with QT.

I switched from the radeon to the fglrx drivers, and get equivalent
behaviour when running these apps -- Xorg crashes as soon as they get UI
events. Other people are seeing similar issues on non-Radeon cards.

Apps that cause the crash :-
VirtualBox OSE
VirtualBox PUEL (via Kris Wilis)
Skype
Opera
KeePassX
VLC
qtpfsgui
picard

-- 
skype (and others) cause complete crash of xorg on startup/IO activity
