xorg-server ignores VIDEO_CARDS="glamo"

[kapiteined]

When you put VIDEO_CARDS="glamo" in your make.conf and emerge
xorg-server, the glamo driver is not present in the VIDEO_CARDS section:

Let's be honest here: it looks like xf86-video-glamo is no time soon going to official Xorg repo. As it would be a PITA for already underpowered project to maintain a patched version of xorg-drivers, I'd just mark this WONTFIX or INVALID. Its extremely simple matter of emerging xf86-video-glamo by hand.

As sleipnir told me, I'll try to push glamo upstream, provided vanilla libdrm repo gets patched by glamo authors. If it gets through, we'll also push xorg-server with video_cards_glamo. If not, it doesn't make sense maintaining xorg ebuilds just for this, so this would get closed.
