It was too obvious to go undetected for long :-). Now if the kernel
framebuffer driver (atyfb, and don't check the 'no video driver' option
when using BootX) reportds the correct vram size the X server should see
the correct size as well.

If you have trouble with the predefined modes, just use the ones returned
by fbset -x.

I'll rsync again to see what else may have changed.
