The KMS problem was expected and Andy will probably take care of it very soon.
The mirrors should get the rebuilt/updated packages soon. Please report if KMS is working for you. KMS is very soon freezing my desktop without entries in Xorg or everything log file :(

The missing firmware can be found in this AUR pkg:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=33016
Gary
mmm.. i installed this package but get exactly the same error
I can see the file in /lib/firmware/radeon/R600_rlc.bin but it cant be loaded ... i dont know why ...

Ok i do more research and 3d working now. This is what i find:
1) file /lib/firmware/radeon/R600_rlc.bin is missing from kernel26-firmware.
2) This file can only be loaded if you use kms late start (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ATI#Late_start).
3) To use early start (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ATI#Early_start) the file should be included in initramfs ... but i really dont know how ...
Add it to FILES in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf. -- Tavian Barnes
