Use opt/gl-select from ports to select the correct gl/glx
libraries and extensions like so:
# gl-select ati
Also to configure your X server you can execute ati configurator like this:
# aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf

refresh the libGLcore and libGL symlinks, like so:
# prt-get update ati
# gl-select xorg; gl-select ati
