Might well be one and the same problem.

Option "AccelDFS" has no effect with KMS (the log file incorrectly claims
otherwise). It might be interesting to narrow down which of the other three
options really make a difference for you. My first guess would be page
flipping.

Did you capture this after a hang occurred? If so, it looks like we can rule
out the hangs being due to GPU lockups.

Does booting with radeon.msi=0 on the kernel command line work around the
problem?

Was lucid even using KMS yet?

Not even for OpenGL apps? Is the GNOME3 fallback mode affected now?
