Do you see this failure each time radeonkms is loaded?

About the Xorg process eating one CPU and filling its log with
modelines, someone else had it. He solved the problem by using an older
DDX (xf86-video-ati 7.1.0 instead of 7.2.0).

Here's a modified port to install version 7.1.0:
http://people.freebsd.org/~dumbbell/radeonkms/port-xf86-video-ati-7.1.0.tar.gz

Can you try it, please? The archive contains the equivalent of
/usr/ports/x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati. You can unpack it anywhere and
run make all deinstall reinstall clean.
