i really think that you can turn back to 8.433 and mask the 8.443.1-r1 ebuild so that you avoid installing it again.

That would appear to be his reason for going back to 8.35.5.

and if that doesn't work then maybe it's better to stick with 8.35 if it works. i don't have agp so i cannot answer if they're supported in the right way or not.

Crunchy:
I got mine to work, I had the PreInitDAL error initially aswell, but after using the other port, and lowering my gart in the bios from 512 to 256 it appears to work normally.
Hmm I also may have commented the "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" option in my xorg.conf so it's back to the default (false i reccon). That's all i changed to get my X1950Pro AGP (512MB) to work (so far, wether it 'really' works remains to be seen as i haven't done much except 2d and glxgears
