Doesn't it 'just' lose the display because the attempt to call an
unresolved function kills the X server immediately, with no chance to
restore console etc.?

So that's the actual problem; apparently, it only tries to call that
function on server shutdown. You're saying this doesn't happen with
"intel" instead of "i810" in xorg.conf?
All references to this symbol have been removed in current git, FWIW.

Not at all, as the log file says, these have been moved into the server
binary itself.
