This is a tough call. I'm actually a fan or the xrandr 1.2 support in the Intel drivers and I've used things like on the fly output switching and single screen rotation in dual head. The automatic modesetting is useful too but these crashes are pretty severe. I've tested openSUSE 10.3 which defaults to the intel driver and that even has a warning in the release notes about them...
