Okay, I think I have worked out the correct thing to do do to handle
bpp changes in the RANDR code, and I've uploaded a test build at [1].
Perhaps you could try it and see if it works for you?
Note that you will need to use -resize with this build to turn on
RANDR in any mode.
If you can make this crash, with or without -resize, a backtrace would
be very helpful.

Hmm.. I don't get seg faults while resizing, but every once in a while
I'll alt-tab to an xterm and start typing, only to have the xterm
evaporate. Once it also happened to emacs, which left both emacs and the
terminal pretty well unusable. Unfortunately, I don't get a stack trace
or any messages in /var/log/XWin.*.log. It just goes away.
I'd never seen this behavior with 1.8.2-0 (or earlier), so I'm rolling
back to it. I'll holler if the problem continues.
Ideas?
