Fedora normally is close to upstream , specially in beta releases. 

You can see here 
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=184
mesa-9.0.1-1.fc18 is already built for Fedora 18

and Intel-drv here:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=7794


new Intel drive is bigger than 2.20.1x ?
