Alan,
Thank you very much for your diagnosis and suggestion. Having no
experience downgrading packages, I'm not certain how to implement the
proposal to downgrade ftgl. The approach I tried is the following:
I created a /usr/portage/package.mask file
/extensions/libglx.so
gets the following response:
x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r5
/usr/lib64/opengl/ati/extensions/libglx.so
Suggestions for how to successfully emerge -D -uav world would be much
appreciated.

Suggestions for how to successfully run revdep-rebuild would be most
