Bug#281050: xserver-common: [i810] Memory leak

I added both of these to the "Device" section, didn't change anything.
I also tried to add them to the "Screen" section (as the manual says),
without any difference either.

Taking this a step further, I completely disabled XAA (Option "Accel"
"off").  It did wonders to slowing my system to a crawl, yet gpdf would
still hoard memory, which means that the problem has not gone away.

I presume that these results do not go well with your hypothesis?  Is
there anything else I can do to at least help find out which part of X
is the culprit?  This bug is really a PITA for me (I even made a tiny
cron script that mails me if X takes up more than 80MB (resident); it
takes about two days to reach that threshold).

Thanks for your help,
