Trying tp update my system. It seems like xorg-server wants both mesa and eselect-opengl but they don't like each-other. (presumably, I don't need mesa at all, I have nvidia card and drivers) # emerge -auvD world ...

This is not a bug, you cannot install mesa-8.0.3 together with eselect-opengl-1.2.6.1. You need to upgrade past the blocking version, latest stable is 8.0.4-r1.
the latest portage offers me is 8.0.3: * media-libs/mesa Latest version available: 8.0.3 Latest version installed: 8.0.3 Size of files: 5,604 kB Homepage: http://mesa3d.sourceforge.net/ Description: OpenGL-like graphic library for Linux License: MIT LGPL-3 SGI-B-2.0
Ah you are using x86. eselect-opengl-1.2.5-r1 is the latest stable on x86, no idea how you came to 1.2.6.1. Maybe some hints are in the "..." where you cut off emerge output.
oh, ok, eselect-opengl was ~x86 for some reason. And I was looking for mesa in configuration files and couldn't find anything strange. Thanks!
