  Well; I possibly know now why it has worked with 0.0.7: 
The radeonhd driver wrote 'KMS is disabled.' under this particular kernel
version - and it started up correctly: evidence enough that something does not
work with KMS in this kernel version.- and UMS is known to work.
  I will try to re-test if it inspite possibly also worked with HDMI under the
0.0.7 version (though I had always been believing it was not - however I am no
more absolutely sure now). However that will hardly be possible since the
radeon driver or the dri xorg code now overflows the event loop as soon as i
just try to boot into X (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32393).

p.s.: Will git auto-apply the patch that I can view under the given http
address on the right kernel version if I invoke git with it in the right way?
One more thx. for the patch! (I will now test it after having been away for
some time).
