Oh, you're right, I didn't think about that at all. 

Though, out of curiosity, how can this case be handled? As the bugfix is a 
real minor one (simply excluding the cards that do not have that problem with 
the chip) there are not too many sollutions to fix it. 
And as this fix obiously is the one that comes first to ones mind, what would 
be the right way here? Completely rewriting mga_*? ;-)

How is this handled in x.org in general? Contributers are not allowed to look 
at xfree code (like with most of the kernel stuff) ?

take care, have fun
