-fomit-frame-pointer will normally not be a problem.  I doubt it is in
this case.  

Have you tried changing the video output to another option?  That's
probably the easiest thing to try as it doesn't require remerging
anything.  I use kmplayer here, with xinelib, and set the video output
using it.  There are three choices, XVideo, XVidix, and X11Shm.  XVideo,
as I mentioned, seems to work best, here.  Unfortunately, I don't know how
to set those other than in kmplayer.

If you do go to remerging, try only xorg and your video player (xine or
mplayer).  You shouldn't have to emerge -e world.

Also, as I mentioned, try emerging memtest and running that over nite.
