Looks like the engine is going nuts. Can you try:

 - Disabling AGP fast write
 - Lowering AGP speed
 - Load DRM with option no_wb=1
 - Try latest DRM CVS

And tell me if any of these helps. Also, when you say "very recently"
for your X.org build, when exactly did you get the ati driver from CVS ?
If it was more than 4 days ago, it might be worth updating and trying
again.
