After sorting out a stupid build problem, here is the result for
the binary search for the crash.
2.6.9         crash
2.6.9-rc2     pci-oom
2.6.9-rc3     crash
2.6.9-rc2-bk7 crash
2.6.9-rc2-bk4 crash
2.6.9-rc2-bk2 pci-oom
2.6.9-rc2-bk3 krash in ifconfig  

Up to 2.6.9-rc2-bk2 we don't get a crash, instead the X log shows this:

(EE) RADEON(0): [pci] Out of memory (-1007)

and gives up on drm in an orderly fashion.  
2.6.9-rc2-bk4 crashes though.  As usual, the X log ends with:
(II) LoadModule: "int10"
(II) Reloading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/linux/libint10.a
(II) RADEON(0): initializing int10
(**) RADEON(0): Option "InitPrimary" "on"
(II) Truncating PCI BIOS Length to 53248


2.6.9-rc2-bk3 wasn't tested further, because the kernel dies upon
running "ifconfig" which must be some other temporary bug.
X will probably be difficult without IPv4 anyway.
