All current libsdl ebuilds are not USEing X and xv properly. This is because they look like this: local myconf use X \ && myconf="${myconf} --enable-video-x11" \ || myconf="${myconf} --disable-video-x11" use xv \ && myconf="${myconf} --enable-video-x11-xv" \ || myconf="${myconf} --disable-video-x11-xv" use esd \ && myconf="--enable-esd" \ || myconf="--disable-esd" The last block for esd resets myconf, so you lose the information from X and xv.
