It likes they are actually still putting the finishing touches on i830GM/i845G stability - http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2012-December/055213.html announces the xf86-video-intel (xserver-xorg-video-intel) 2.20.17 driver and describes a change. It sounds as if this change is designed to work with an upcoming kernel, perhaps 3.8.

However the error you are now getting sounds different and more serious. A GTK patch which is claimed to fix this has been sent to the GNOME mailing list - see https://mail.gnome.org/archives/commits-list/2012-December/msg03994.html - I will also bring that up on the freedesktop bug.
