You're in luck!  I fixed this GPU hang today in Mesa master.

This commit fixes the hang:

    i965: Apply post-sync non-zero workaround to homebrew workaround.

    In commit 3e5d3626, Eric added a homebrew workaround to fix GPU hangs in
    the Mesa "engine" demo and oglc's api-texcoord test.

    Unfortunately, his PIPE_CONTROL contains a Depth Stall, which
    necessitates the post-sync non-zero workaround,

    Fixes GPU hangs in Civilization 4, PlaneShift, and 3DMMES.
    Hopefully Heroes of Newerth as well, though I haven't tested that.

    NOTE: This is candidate for the 7.11 branch.

I'm planning on cherry-picking it to the 7.11 branch in the next few
days, so it ought to make the upcoming 7.11.1 release.
