After installing the ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa the flicker seems to have been fixed. This leads me to conclude that the issue was caused by something done in the default Ubuntu install of X. However, it would be nice to see some of the changes with the 1.12 server and drivers to be brought into mainline for inclusion, as this seems to have fixed the issue.
