Thanks for the info, is this really the recommended fix???

Remove nvidia-driver port, then upgrade xorg-clients. After that you can 
reinstall nvidia-driver.

I read the above as xorg-clients conflicts with nvidia-driver, if it was set 
this way here is what portmanager would do:

1) when upgrading xorg-clients finds conflicting port nvidia-driver installed
and removes it unless user chooses otherwise before 5 minute timeout

2) Upgrade xorg-clients

Athe this point something would have to have a dependency on nvidia-driver
for it to be pulled back in automatically else the user is going to need to
install it manaually...  Well I can see how this situation is causing problems 
anyways.......

Has this issue been resolved yet? From reading your references it seems
like this fixed the problem with xdriinfo.c:

A patch has been committed to fix this. 

But I saw no other solution to handling the nvidia port.
