The patch that records this informaiton was committed to
intel-drm-next and is included in today's mainline build of
drm-intel-next [1]. So it would be even nicer now to have the
apport-script include this piece of information automatically.

Btw, LP bug 526533 [2] seems to be an example of the apport-magic
going wrong. It has IntelGpuDump.txt attached, but not any other of
the xorg log files.
