That's unfortunate. I know next to nothing about debian/ubuntu or how
they do versions or how to even build packages for them. But they're
big distros, presumably they have support teams of some sort, perhaps
they can help you.

Assuming that switching away does resolve the issue for you, perhaps
you can also recommend that they avoid shipping that version, or
include this nouveau fix in it:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/commit/?id=812e8fe6ce46d733c30207ee26c788c61f546294

This whole libdrm thing is a bit of a cluster%@#$ unfortunately --
2.4.60 is broken for nouveau, building even the latest released
xf86-video-intel against 2.4.61+ causes it to not start ("fixed" in
xf86-video-intel git), and newer mesa requires libdrm 2.4.60+.
