Looks like this will be a challenge for upstream to fix:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DirectRenderingToRedirectedWindows

From July: "There is work going on here, but the scope of this is a lot bigger than your average bug fix. We need to rework the interaction and interface between the kernel drm, the X server and the 3D DRI drivers. We're probably talking man-years of work here"

From Dec: "there's been lots of progress on this front, but the final bits haven't been released yet afaik, though Kristian may have more details on what's available for testing etc."

"> Isn't there any kind of workaround for this?

Unfortunately not - the only way to get correct compositing is to properly redirect the rendering."
