I applied the commit you mentioned on top of
libdrm (2.4.40-1~deb7u2) sid; urgency=low
and rebuilt the package. Unfortunately I think there is no difference.
The glyph corruption is still gone but it is also still slow, so swrast
still might be used.
How can I check, what is used, without `glxinfo` installed? I could not
spot anything useful in `/var/log/Xorg.0.log`.
