This time the culprit wasn't the closed source ati libs... 

In gentoo, /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so is a link to
/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/extensions/libdri.so. That ease the switching
between the closed and the open sources with the eselect tool. 
Also when I upgraded xorg-server to 1.6.0 or to the git sources with emerge
tool  the real libdri.so file was never deleted and replaced with the new
library. 

The lesson is, always perform a ls -l and take time to check the creation date
and the type of the object.

Reinstalling the server after removing
/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so as well as
/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/extensions/libdri.so has done it.

Little report,
glgears reports 400FPS, EXA is smooth enough during scrolling but compiz 8.2
gives me a stupid white screen.
Also AIGLX still complains about a missing /usr/lib64/dri/r600_dri.so file.
Probably due to the fact that it is not r6xx or r7xx ready right now.

Thanks for the hint
