as i've told you the x11 ebuilds are really good and the overall quality of
the git xorg is quite impressive. the cairo and glitz ebuilds always have
some problems with autoconf, but once in a while they compile. i think that
this is due to some autoconf-wrapper issues, but i'm not sure. use the
portage ones instead of the 9999 versions for them.
as for eselect-opengl i have 1.0.6-r2 installed well and without issues.
i've posted my bz2 for opengl. try putting it in your distfiles directory
and retry installing.
