лог разговора (частично урезанный):
...
[18:19:24] <L.A. Kostis> I have one question about fglrx and their
relation with new xorg
[18:19:48] <L.A. Kostis> libdrm, if be more correct
[18:20:26] <xxxx> Ok ... 
[18:21:18] <L.A. Kostis> why fglrx have so strict requires for libdrm
version? for example, it works only with 2.4.0 and fail with 2.4.1
[18:24:22] <xxxx> I'm not sure what you're talking about. I know that we
started shipping with our own versions of libdrm and libdri recently. The
reason is that libdrm and libdri tend to change and invalidate assumptions
in our code. This was biting us in the "behind" especially while we
introduced multi-ASIC support. 
[18:26:26] <L.A. Kostis> so if someone wants to use fglrx must use shipped
libdrm/libdri?
[18:26:35] <L.A. Kostis> shipped w/ fglrx
[18:27:32] <xxxx> Yes. 
[18:28:10] <L.A. Kostis> Ok, thanks. It shed some light to this situation
:)
[18:29:23] <xxxx> The other reason is that we're supporting multiple X
versions. Shipping our own version of libdrm/libdri we can avoid lots of
conditional compilation and hacks trying to work with every version of
libdrm/libdri out there. 

Т.е. думайте сами, решайте сами. Видимо, придется систему костылей и
подпорок расширять и на libdri/libdrm в случае fglrx.
