Thanks, the patch works for me.

Starting X kills the box dead.  I didn't get a crash dump so can't say
more than that.  Maybe a double fault?

Note that I'm using the experimental 7.5 server.

I thought it might be caused by dri (locking etc.) so I deleted it but the
crash persisted.  I did _not_ try reinstalling all my X-based ports - too
much hassle.
