r6xx-r7xx branches are merged to head on freedesktop.org git.  Now you 
can test and/or use EXA/Xv acceleration with the DRM.  FYI, I made a 
temporary ports to update x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd-devel and 
you can get it from here:

If you prefer xf86-video-ati, you can use the following temporary 
ports instead:

http://people.freebsd.org/~jkim/xf86-video-ati-devel.tar.bz2

To turn on the features, you need the following two lines in Device 
section of /etc/xorg.conf:

	Option "DRI" "true"
	Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
