exactly that:

* commit 785af88ab0120036e0ce3d0139f3c560ff71e10b
* Author: Dave Airlie <airlied at redhat.com>
* Date:   Wed Sep 26 16:16:40 2012 +1000
*
*    dri1: fix dri1 startup since 459c6da0f907ba33d733c7e62a116184ba2f14e5
*
*    This commit regresses dri1 since it moves the drmSetServerInfo from being
*    called at module load time to extension init time. However DRIScreenInit
*    relies on this being called before it gets control.
*
*    This patches moves the call into DRIScreenInit and seems to work here.

Looks like the regressing commit ended up in 1.13 and the fixup in 1.14.

Can you gentoo guys "emerge" to xserver 1.14 and see if that fixes the issue?
