Yeah, we've always suspected there are more than just one bug causing
freezes, they just all look identical.

However, given everyone's feedback it seems we definitely do have one
bug that is triggered with mdz's repro.sh script when running with stock
xorg.conf (i.e. EXA) on i965, and goes away when upping Virtual, for
some reason. This is the issue we'll focus on here.

So if you have a freeze that doesn't fit these conditions, you should
look elsewhere.
