emerge of af86-video-ati fails

[ese002]

Has anyone made this work?
There is what I get:

I think this is to do with a change in the EXA API. Which version of x11-base/xorg-server are you running and have you tried upgrading to ~arch?

For the record I am using x11-base/xorg-server-1.1.1-r1 with x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.6.2 and it's working just great.

I knew I should have looked in Bugzilla before replying: Bug #129904

The thing is that if you're using x11-base/xorg-server-1.0.2-r7 (?), which is the latest stable version, then it (6.5.8.0) should compile fine as far as I can tell.
