Where's the difference between kernel versions? :)

Anyway, since the current upstream versions don't exhibit this problem
together and fixing xf86-video-intel for old Mesa would break current
Mesa, I don't intend to do anything about this upstream.

Also, since no version of Debian ships the problematic combination of
kernel, xf86-video-intel and Mesa, I'm not sure it's even worth doing
anything about it in Debian packages. XSF, what do you think?
