These programs appear to be compiled with different use flags.  For
example, xine-lib has xinerama but xine-ui doesn't.  I don't think it's
likely for that to be the root of the problem, but I wonder whether
support isn't missing in another dependancy.  May I suggest you examine
the output of emerge -pvN world to see whether anything needs to be
recompiled for the new use flags?
