X problems with Radeon X300

Two problems have shown up running rawhide on a ThinkPad T43 with Mobility  
Radeon X300 video.  One is that resume fails with a blank screen and a  
non-responsive keyboard after many suspends--but that's something that  
comes and goes with releases of the ati driver.

The other is a mail agent that vanishes in a puff of smoke when switching  
mailboxes.  In gdb:

balsa: xcb_io.c:242: process_responses: Assertion `(((long)  
(dpy->last_request_read) - (long) (dpy->request)) <= 0)' failed.

with the backtrace

#4  0x018d7374 in process_responses (dpy=0x817ba00,
     wait_for_first_event=<value optimized out>, current_error=0x0,
     current_request=0) at xcb_io.c:242

The errors go away if the MUA is run with --sync, or if the radeon driver  
is replaced by vesa--that is, if I cripple the display performance, one  
way or the other.  I'm not sure what product against which to file a  
bug--or has it already been filed--any suggestions?
