No, and no.

fglrxinfo would tell you the version of the ati-drivers in use.

But... there can be only one (the package is not slotted).

Problem here-- afaik-- is that the drivers-extra package is hooked to
the drivers package of the same version.

The --deep update of the drivers-extra package requires the 'same'
version of the drivers package as it itself is numbered.

What I don't understand is why you are not getting drivers-extra-8.18.8,
but only 8.14.13.

And I definitely don't know how the double "upgrade" would work, except
that it would likely be an upgrade/downgrade (but not shown as such
because the upgrade has not yet been performed).

emerge -p ati-drivers ati-drivers-extra

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] media-video/ati-drivers-8.18.8-r1
[ebuild   R   ] media-video/ati-drivers-extra-8.18.8

Do you maybe have a mask on ati-drivers-extra?
