I can feel your pain :( This may not help, but I thought I'd mention it just because nothing else has helped so far. I started having random keyboard issues right after the most recent xorg update on my ~x86 and ~amd64 machines. Maybe just once/day or so I'll hit a key and the auto-repeat function starts repeating the keystroke ad infinitum until I hit Backspace. This is not a lockup like your problem, but it was striking that this random keyboard problem started right after the recent xorg update. (Yes, I recompiled all the drivers after the upgrade.) Since you are recompiling/reinstalling everything anyway, what about masking the most recent xorg-server/xorg-driver updates so you can test older versions? You quad-core speed demon ;p
