You might want to try the latest r200_dri.so created from CVS. See
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building for build instructions (you can
skip the building and installing of xorg if you have xorg 6.9 or higher)
or get a nightly build (see http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Download).
If the problem is still there you might want to report the bug on the
DRI users list (dri-users lists sourceforge net).
