try it with different versions of the ati-drivers please. works fine here with nvidia.
also, try it with the xorg-x11 opengl. reopen after trying these things. Thanks.
A different ati driver version would require me to downgrade from xorg 6.8.x, which is too much trouble. I did change to the xorg-x11 opengl library, and it worked. However, as I expected, it's quite slow. When I run it with the ATI library, the intro comes on, and is much faster (i.e. the "normal" speed). Xorg and ATI Radeon didn't work together until the new drivers (all serious graphics apps were unbearably slow with the previous driver versions, including the xorg radeon versions). Now at least some games work fine. I take it then that this is an ATI driver issue? If I find out about other games/apps not performing (seemingly because of the ATI driver), is there a more appropriate place to post about it?
I think there's not much to be done about this one. I don't recommend the ati-drivers because many people have experienced issues with them. In your case, it could be caused by too aggressive CFLAGS so if I were in your situation I would drop down to CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" and emerge -ev world to see if it helped. However, since downgrading xorg-x11 is by itself too much trouble, I think you're on your own. Sorry. CC'd x11 in case they have any additional thoughts about this.
I'll try to reproduce the issue, a backtrace could help
update: it works fine for me
Are you using a Radeon based ATI card?
