Well, I tried rebuilding the dri and drm modules only, using source from git. Everything compiled without error.

Even if the whole stack didn't work, I expected that I'd now see radeon initialised in dmesg. No such luck. I did get a couldn't find RGB visual from glxinfo but I doubt that's an improvement!
Realistically, it's probably beyond me right now since I'm pretty new to linux (though used FreeBSD for a while). Still, I might as well try to build xorg 7.4 while I'm on a roll screwing things up!
