That's actually rather good progress.  :)

I found this,

http://www.nabble.com/emerge-xorg-xll--fails-out-at-media-libs-mesa-6.5-r3-t1879194.html

See the post from Donnie Berkholz near the bottom, where he suggests

  # eselect opengl set xorg-x11

Then try,

  # emerge -ptv xorg-x11  [ this will show you what's going to be merged ]
  # emerge xorg-x11       [ ok, try again...]
