Doing "PORT_LOGDIR=/var/log/portage emerge -D -uav world" on my amd64
machine elicits a response that ends as follows:

microway ~ # portageq owners / /usr/lib64/opengl/ati/extensions/libglx.so
x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r5
	/usr/lib64/opengl/ati/extensions/libglx.so

Doing "portageq owners / /usr/lib64/opengl/ati/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.
