Xorg log file from crash

Xorg.0.log is attached, as are the relevant parts of xorg.conf.  Using git bisect, I found that commit 30031b169def5caadb394225919a6079a0957142 in xf86-video-ati caused the breakage.

Device driver section from xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Card0"
    Driver      "radeon"
    VendorName  "Unknown Vendor"
    BoardName   "Unknown Board"
    Option      "AccelMethod" "EXA"
    Option      "AccelDFS" "on"
    Option      "FBTexPercent" "0"
    BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
Comment 1 Michel Dänzer 2009-10-03 15:52:29 UTC 
Please try getting a backtrace with gdb.

So reverting just commit 30031b169def5caadb394225919a6079a0957142 on top of current xf86-video-ati Git fixes the problem?

Can you be more specific than 'certain webpages'?
Comment 2 Michel Dänzer 2009-10-05 07:31:31 UTC 
Maybe this is a duplicate of bug 24316? That one was caused by the commit before 30031b169def5caadb394225919a6079a0957142 though, 4b4ce36081ca151c24e028c54b59986f41731a73.
Comment 3 Joel Feiner 2009-10-05 11:28:02 UTC 
Yes, that is the problem.  The applied patch fixes the problem.  Sorry about
giving you the wrong commit.
