I can't say that 3.9 really exhibits the bug. It no longer has text on the VTs (which is it's own bug), but can be coaxed into providing an X display if the right steps are followed. That's not to say that it's smooth or the desired behavior, but it *can* provide an X display. Whereas, 3.10 can not, and 3.8 does not require coaxing unless one of the later kernels has been attempted. I'll start with the 3.9 release candidates and report back.
