I can verify Gabriel Cuka's comment - renaming that directory allowed both the repository fglrx package and the ATI-sourced package to install.
Renaming the /usr/lib/fglrx directory also fixed two installation warnings about subdirectories not being able to be deleted. Neither of these two steps, however, resulted in a functioning driver. I wonder whether it's a kernel issue, since my display is garbled on startup as well. Full 1440x900 resolution without acceleration when in X, but the startup splash screen is garbled beyond recognition.
