Why is this resolution "inaccessible"?

oops, hadn't gone back to the first message.  The code is in 
i830_driver.c, l 3113.
and indeed, it fails to find a match for you in the mode pool. The error 
is not clock speed,
that's just the cheap hack to test if the search failed:

>   3101           if (p->status == MODE_OK) {
>   3102              for (pMon = pScrn->monitor->Modes; pMon != NULL; 
> pMon = pMon->next) {



 It would be better to have 2 different error messages: 1 for failed 
match, 1 for the clock speed.
