Instead the outer square (drawn as a GL_LINE_STRIP with the start/end point repeated) is rendered correctly, but of the inner square (drawn as a GL_LINE_LOOP) only two segments are drawn.

I can't reproduce this with a Radeon X300 (rv370) so this is indeed
probably a bug in the specific driver for your board (hence reassigning
to libgl1-mesa-dri). Now it would be nice to try with mesa 7.3
(currently in experimental).
