You are not running WITH_NEW_XORG (no make.conf), so you are running a much
older version of glib than I am. This may be related to the issues you are
seeing. /usr/local/lib/dri files come from graphics/dri. swrast is the
software rasterization "dri" which implies that you don't have any hardware
rasterization capability.

What graphics hardware is this running on? Run "pciconf -lv" and find the
item(s) in "class = DISPLAY". Can you look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log and see
what driver is actually being used? I suspect you may need either the
nvidia driver or NEW_XORG, but I am not at all sure.
