mfmj, thanks. It looks like 165 packages were ugpraded on the 12th, and I will assume one of those packages are what brought this regression. Excluding packages which have little to do with graphics leaves this list of suspects:
compiz: The change here involves changes to error handling after making an X call (XQueryTree).
mesa: This updates to a new upstream bugfix release 7.10.2. This pulls in several dozen changes, a number of which affect Intel.
xserver: This updates to a new upstream bugfix beta 10.0.902. Most of the fixes are for input issues or memory leaks.
intel: This is a small one-line change for texture caching, to fix an issue particular to KDE.
The mesa update seems like the most likely suspect, but any of the four could be plausible candidates.
mfmj, are you able to reproduce this lockup, or has it happened just the one time? If you are able to reproduce it, we may be able to narrow down the package that causes the regression. Let me know and I can provide additional directions.
