The 16 bit depth (in combination with other things... see URLs below)
was the culprit for your BadMatch errors.
Here are some comments I left in my xorg.conf after updating to 7.2
# With DefaultDepth 16 & the Composite extension, mozilla based (gtk?)
# apps running the flash plugin get BadMatch X errors with the Intel
# internal card (and with the Radeon if not using the xtrap extension).
#
# Using depth of 24 works around this problem. Apparently it's a problem
# with the application picking different visuals. You can force some
# apps to disable use of composite visuals to also work around this.
# example: env XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 xdpyinfo

This has nothing to do with linux emulation, of course. Any flash issues
you have are separate issues.
