When we replaced:

#if !defined(__powerpc__) && !defined(__ia64__)

with 

#if 0

on line 498 of nouveau_mem.c, clients were able to connect without X crashing. 
I was able to start gnome-terminal, xterm, Firefox, etc.

However, when I started urxvt (a simple terminal with unicode support), X
crashed and I got the following errors in .xsession-errors:

gnome-session: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server
: \0.0.
gnome-terminal: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X
server :\0.0.
gnome-panel: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server
:0. \0.
bluetooth-applet: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X    
  \server :0.0.
nm-applet: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server
:0.0.
pam-panel-icon: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X
server :\0.0.
firefox: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0.
Window manager warning: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on
  \display ':0.0'.
kerneloops-applet: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X   
  \server :0.0.
applet.py: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server
:0.0.
gpk-update-icon: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X     
  \server :0.0.


I checked Xorg.0.log, and it didn't give any additional output.  I also tried
with Composite both enabled and disabled, and both showed the same problem.  I
will attach the kernel log (with drm output) from the time X started to the
time it crashed.

This seems related to the earlier crashes, but it might not be.  You would
probably know better than I do.

Thanks for your help.
