Last time I tried there were a number of regression on some older
hardware. If you can identify which commit is fixing the crash, I
would be happy to check if it can be back-ported.

The state of the xf86-video-intel driver is sad. But everyone is
moving away from it to the modesettings driver. Hopefully the current
work on upgrading the kernel-side DRM code and the upcoming upgrade to
xserver 1,20.x will also improve the modesetting driver on OpenBSD, so
that less people will need to run the intel driver.
