 You might want to try:

    http://people.debian.org/~mmagallo/debian-dri-cvs.tar.gz

 $ mkdir dri-cvs # anything goes
 $ tar -C dri-cvs -xvpzf debian-dri-cvs.tar.gz
 $ editor dri-cvs/debian/rules
 point this to a place with a checked out copy of the DRI CVS tree
 where the top level Makefile can be found.
 $ debian/rules nightly

 you'll need some stuff installed, I'm sorry, there isn't a
 build-depends line, this should do it:

    Build-Depends: dpkg (>= 1.7.0), flex, bison, bsdmainutils, groff,
    zlib1g-dev | libz-dev, libncurses5-dev | libncurses-dev,
    libfreetype6-dev, libpaperg, tetex-bin, libglide2-dev [i386],
    libglide3-dev [i386]

 This is taken from the xfree86 build-depends, I doubt libpaperg and
 tetex-bin are actually required, but I haven't checked.  debhelper in
 particular is not required, as this is *not* based on the official
 xfree86 packaging.  That also means the debian specific patches are
 *not* applied (I don't have time for that).  What you get is *one*
 package which contains the X server, the drivers, the DRI modules, the
 Mesa libraries and a drm.tar.gz that works with kernel-package.  You
 need to install this alongside the xfree86 X server packages and modify
 your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (directions provided in the readme).  I
 think this conflicts with some package out there, but I was in a rush
 and didn't fix it in the debian/control file.

 You'll note the final packages are not stripped, this is intentional.
 I packaged this in the first place because I needed to generate a
 useable backtrace.

 FWIW, these are the packages I use on a daily basis.  They work.
 (Nevertheless, whatever I build for upload to the archives is built
 with the official ones)

 Patches are always welcomed.
