Steve, I've reproduced a freeze on i965.  It came on within 2-3 hrs of updating 
to mesa 7.4.
After downgrading to 7.3, the freeze went away entirely.

In doing an analysis both of all freeze bug reports reported, and a
study of all X and linux changes made within the past few weeks, I
believe pretty strongly that the mesa 7.4 upload introduced a regression
for i965 chipsets that results in a "random" X freeze most noticeable
with compiz enabled (it may still freeze with compiz disabled since
other things can trigger DRI code.)

Can you evaluate this hypothesis with your own freeze, and see if it
fits these parameters?  See if downgrading to mesa 7.3 makes the freeze
go away entirely (I know it's hard to say for sure, since it is so hard
to reproduce).
