confirmed regression from .53
Ignore my last comment, I'm an idiot and commented on wrong bug. Include output of emerge -dDpvt world please
Created attachment 75161 [details] dependencies tree for ati-drivers-extra Looks like the problem is from the dependencies from ati-drivers-extra which requires ~x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.14.13. Change the ~ to >= would fix the problem. And yes, the apps (fgl_glxgear and fireglcontrol) works fine with the new driver.
Irrelevant bug, the versions in question are gone.
