Dear Maintainer,

intel driver upgrade from 2.99.914 to 2.99.916 causes that xorg started to
segfault.

It's interesting that problem usually happens when I use terminator with
decreased font size.

It seems it is works fine with 2:2.99.916+git20141119-1~exp1. I had no
segfault since upgrade. I think you can mark it as fixed in upstream.
