Bug Description

I have a proprietary application crashing on SIGBUS during a /dev/dri/card0 ioctl
Unfortunately that provides no information at all

I tried with LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=y and the X11 crashed.
Full Xorg logfile is attached.

When the X11 crashes this way, I immediately restart it and start the application, there is a chance of the error not happening.
But if there is an Xv client / flashplayer running on another VT, it never works.

ubuntu-bug does not work, reported as #1150335

This was happening both on Quantal and Raring.

Unfortunately the binary program is 32bit and mesa/libgl is not willing to cross-compile

The commit made it's way into mesa-9.1.2 (Raring has currently 9.1.1 in the repository)
I hope I'll be able to pull it from saucy and test soon
