It appears as though Octave (sci-mathematics/octave-4.2.1) links to the wrong version of libGL.so.1. Specifically, on a system with both mesa and nvidia installed, the library preference given by eselect does not appear to be respected.

liboctinterp is set in such a way that the wrong libGL.so.1 is getting picked up. From above strace seems to confirm this since Octave originally looked for libGL in both the BLAS and LAPACK directories also in the rpath. Thanks for the help!
Please re-open if the issue is reproduced with 5.2.0 and an up to date mesa/nvidia-drivers/libglvnd stack.
