Now, I'd used the [testing] repo to update xorg to 1.6 and then
disabled it. However pacman -Qi shows libdrm to be at 2.4.6-1
so I don't see why pacman refuses to upgrade.

this has been happening to me too. for some reason pacman wants to
*downgrade* libdrm and xf86-video-intel.

That is because they have the force option in the PKGBUILD.

I have the x server, intel
driver, evdev, and mesa all explicitly installed from testing, while
testing is at the end of my pacman.conf.

A quick workaround is
IgnorePkg = xf86-video-intel libdrm
in pacman.conf after which I get:
warning: libdrm: ignoring package upgrade (2.4.6-1 => 2.3.1-3)
warning: xf86-video-intel: ignoring package upgrade (2.6.99.902-1 => 2.4.3-1)
