[arch-ports] xf86-video-ati possibly broken on MacMini's

The current xf86-video-ati package 6.7.195 doesn't want to work on my
MacMini, it errors with:

        (WW) ****INVALID IO ALLOCATION**** b: 0xf0000400 e: 0xf00004ff
        correcting
        (EE) end of block range 0xefffffff < begin 0xf0000000
        (II) Module "ddc" already built-in
        (II) Module "i2c" already built-in
        finished output detect: 0
        finished output detect: 1
        finished output detect: 2
        finished all detect
        before xf86InitialConfiguration
        (EE) RADEON(0): No valid modes.
        (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
        
        Fatal server error:
        no screens found

Rebuilding xf86-video-ati version 6.6.3 seems to fix it though it still
has the following:

        (WW) ****INVALID IO ALLOCATION**** b: 0xf0000400 e: 0xf00004ff
        correcting
        (EE) end of block range 0xefffffff < begin 0xf0000000
        (**) RADEON(0): RADEONPreInit
        (II) Module "ddc" already built-in
        (II) Module "i2c" already built-in
        (II) Module "ramdac" already built-in
        (**) RADEON(0): RADEONScreenInit 98000000 0


But at least this one works. Any suggestions on what the problem might
be? I'll go ahead and attach the full error from the current driver and
also my xorg.conf.
