This sounds a lot like bug #376092, which I'm about to upload the patch
for, along with the patch for bug #360319 (another memory leak).  I'm
going to dupe this to #376092.  (Both of these are actually bugs in the
intel portion of mesa, rather than directly in the -intel DDX driver.)

Regarding a fix for Jaunty, we shipped EXA as the default there, so that
reduces the priority on backports of UXA fixes.  I'm also a bit leery of
backporting mesa fixes to Jaunty because we've found the code to be
pretty brittle; several times we backported changes which seemed safe at
first but later were suspected to cause freezes, low perf, etc. on
different hardware, so I'm concerned about the risk of introducing a
regression inadvertently.
