I may have the same problem here.
If I use XAA, everything works fine but Xorg recommends me to use EXA over XAA.
If I use EXA, the graphical login appears corrupted, specially the fonts. If I
log in, the system freezes in a few seconds. Even the SysRq combo doesn't work.

I've tried the next:
With "BusType" "PCI" I get "(WW) RADEON(0): Option "BusType" is not used".
Options "EXANoUploadToScreen" and "EXANoDownloadFromScreen" are useless, the
freeze continues.
Option "EXANoComposite" gives me a working system but, in exchange, it seems to
make X a very cpu hungry process.

My GPU is an "ATI R300 AD [Radeon 9500 Pro]". I'm on a Gentoo box using the git
version of the graphic stack through the x11 overlay.

Please, feel free to ask for more information or if you want me to try a patch.
