Don't worry, we don't close bugs before the fixed upstream enters
Debian, which is not the case yet. For now, I am marking the bug as
fixed-upstream.
However, you seem to have tried the master branch of the upstream git
repo, while the upcoming 2.2.x packages come from the
xf86-video-intel-2.2-branch. It would be nice to try this branch. If it
fails, we'll tell the upstream devs that some fixes are missing on the
branch (and are required for 2.2.x).
To checkout the branch, once you're in your git cloned repo, do:
git-checkout -b xf86-video-intel-2.2-branch
origin/xf86-video-intel-2.2-branch
(it creates a local branch based on the remote one, and checkouts it).
