Does the patch you refer to above work for you?
It appears not to have been put back yet into upstream git.

As for your radeon card, are you saying that radeonhd won't work for you 
any more either?  It has only been pulled from the meta-pkgs, but it 
still builds normally.

Perhaps you could give it a try after updating libpciaccess?

I guess I don't see the relation with KMS here...
