I had a similar problem but X did not start in my case. The only way to
solve it was by adding
Option "DRI" "false"
to Xorg.conf. The GPU is i810 here.
My understanding is that since i810_dri was removed from mesa a lot of
versions ago you need to disable DRI in xorg-server, otherwise the
error. Also to get some acceleration you need an older version of
xorg-server I think because "intel" supports only XAA and that was
removed from xorg starting from 1.13 (I'm using xorg-server 1.12.4-r1).
# grep "xorg" /etc/portage/package.mask
>=x11-base/xorg-server-1.13.1
xorg-server-1.13 and above here work, but window dragging is sloooow.
