Yes, this is just in the radeonhd driver. The mainline radeon driver supports textured video, 2D and some minimal Render acceleration for everything up to r5xx, as well as dual-link DVI and scaling for LVDS.

I certainly saw no evidence of render acceleration being enabled with XAA. (And I did check the Xorg.0.log file.)
(Oops, I meant render acceleration for R300, not R500.) (NT). Posted Feb 25, 2008 9:04 UTC (Mon) by rankincj (subscriber, #4865) [Link] Yup, "no text here".
Radeon R5xx 3D programming guide released Posted Feb 26, 2008 5:16 UTC (Tue) by njs (subscriber, #40338) [Link] All X drivers are transitioning to using EXA exclusively; the only reason I know of to stick with XAA is if your card's EXA support is less stable than the older XAA support. That is unlikely to be the case when using brand-new drivers for previously unsupported hardware :-). I'd just turn on EXA. (And if things break, then file bugs and maybe drop back to unaccelerated mode, I guess.)
