Previr, this seems interesting and important.
[mind you, I'm not a developer, just trying to push this bug along]

Can you also attach:
(1) the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(2) the output of the command: xvinfo

Downgrading a working system is tricky and painful.
I'd advice to wait for solution/workaround before you resort to that.

Meanwhile, best workaround I had before "nomodeset" solved Xv for me:
  mplayer -vm -vo x11 -framedrop
Be warned that -vm might sometimes switch to a low resolution and not restore 
it :-(
  xrandr --auto
and
  xrandr -s 1024x768  # or whatever you like
will be your friends then...
