For the i810 issue I was just talking with mich@ about his continuing
failure, even after
http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/X/patch-i810-6_8 which is a merge of
what's happened on the 6.8 branch since 6.8.1.  Nothing that looks
significant for his issue has happened between XORG-6_8-branch and HEAD.
At this point, I would be thinking about figuring out how to do dlloader
and trying to get a backtrace, if that patch doesn't help you.
http://lists.freedesktop.org/pipermail/xorg/2004-November/004566.html
might be a place to start looking.

(The dlloader means you use a normal shared object module format, rather
than the wacky XFree86 cross-OS module type that gdb doesn't like)

No clue on the gnome issue yet.
