If it does work it would be worth a bug report to get the nvidia ebuild(s)
updated similar to the ati ones;
# grep -i symbol ati-drivers-8.593.ebuild
if kernel_is ge 2 6 26 && ! linux_chkconfig_present UNUSED_SYMBOLS; then
ewarn "You have to Enable unused/obsolete exported symbols in
Kernel hacking section of kernel config for fglrx to load"
