You were right. It seems that I am behind a very restrictive firewall. 
Tunneling git traffic through SSH did the trick and I got the newest 
i810 driver compiled.

I could not get it working, though. There might be some configuration 
issues or something else. The config file I use is at 
http://www.iki.fi/tol/xorg.conf.txt  and the log file is at 
http://www.iki.fi/tol/xorg-modesetting-log.txt

The log contains following errors:

(EE) I810(0): detecting sil164

Fatal server error:
No modes found on either pipe

Also, this warning is interesting.

(WW) I810(1): Mode 1680x1050 is out of range.

ddcprobe seems to report all modes correctly (http://www.iki.fi/tol/ddc.txt)

Is there some way to tell the driver that the mode is not out of range?

By the way, should I attach those log and configuration files to e-mails 
rather than including just a link? I feel bad about spamming long log 
files to many people.

Thanks for the help,
