Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome

The openchrome driver locks up the system when switching VT on Via VX800 based systems (including the Samsung NC20 I'm using). This was upstream bug 321 (http://www.openchrome.org/trac/ticket/321) and was fixed in upstream SVN revision 838, which unfortunately Ubuntu hasn't yet packaged. Any chance of the package being updated in Lucid, or even just that one commit being included? This bug means anyone affected cannot switch back to X after switching to another VT without the system locking up completely, and this in turn breaks suspend, or rather resume, as well.
