The problem isn't obvious to me, but in the past I've seen strange linking
errors happen when the ebuild (for some strange reason) uses the headers
in /usr/include (from the previous version of the package) instead of the
headers in the new source code. No idea why.

Anyway, you could try removing your current mesa installation (after using
quickpkg, of course) and then trying the emerge again.

Sometimes when a package fails to build while doing an:

emerge -auDN world

I've had to add the '--with-bdeps=y' option:

emerge -auDN --with-bdeps=y world

For some reason I can't understand, it seems to work. It may not help
with mesa-9.1.2-r1 but it doesn't take much effort and can't hurt to try

As someone noted : Bug 458550 . I ran into this,
but was too busy to look for a bug report & left 9.0.1 in place.
The extra USE flag allows it to install on my machine.

Thanks. My Google-fu isn't what it used to be. I've now built it
successfully with the shared-glapi flag.
