I've done further testing, and can say:
  2.6.33 --> flicker
  2.6.34 pre rc1 (commit 3474cbd11df8cdd6413781ea95bd51dd469098ff) is good, no flicker.

So at least the problem appears to have been fixed in HEAD. Hopefully the patch will find its way into the 2.6.32 series soon..

And booting with "nomodeset" also seems to prevent flicker, even on 2.6.32-16 or 2.6.33. Of course there are disadvantages to that..
