GNOME3 and nvidia-driver

Hi,

The latest GNOME3 update doesn't appear to live well with
nvidia-driver. I'm attempting to build gnome3, but it's failing during
the configure of graphics/cogl (required by graphics/cogl, required by
graphics/clutter, required by accessibility/caribou):

...
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.32.0... yes (version 2.42.0)
checking EGL/egl.h usability... no
checking EGL/egl.h presence... no
checking for EGL/egl.h... no
configure: error: Unable to locate required EGL headers
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
...

Hmm. Okay, a quick search reveals graphics/libEGL has the headers.
# cd /usr/ports/graphics/libEGL && make install clean
...
===>  Checking if libEGL already installed
===>   Registering installation for libEGL-10.3.3
pkg-static: libEGL-10.3.3 conflicts with nvidia-driver-340.46
(installs files into the same place).  Problematic file:
/usr/local/lib/libEGL.so
*** Error code 70

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/ports/graphics/libEGL

What should I do?

Cheers
