Have you tried the DRI snapshot packages described in
http://dri.sourceforge.net/snapshots/README.Debian yet?

What stability problem? Note that the getparam ioctl is only used by the
3D driver.

AFAICT this is the DRM_IOCTL_VERSION ioctl, odd that it would be

If this is a 'normal' X server segfault, you should try to get a
backtrace, e.g. using the xserver-xfree86-dbg package.
