The files are in /usr/lib/fglrx

However the driver is most definitely looking for files there, I ran 
a strace and it clearly is trying.  Running strings on fglrx_drv.so
also showed this directory.  That is even the file in the source
archive at xpic_64a/usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so

I have the entire strace output, but the bit where it all goes bad is
just a few lines:

11744 write(0, "(II) fglrx(0): PowerXpress: Disc"..., 54) = 54
11744 lstat("/usr/lib64/fglrx", 0x7fff34855930) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
11744 write(0, "[  2286.685] ", 13)     = 13
11744 write(2, "(EE) fglrx(0): PowerXpress: Cann"..., 86) = 86
11744 write(0, "(EE) fglrx(0): PowerXpress: Cann"..., 86) = 86
11744 write(0, "[  2286.686] ", 13)     = 13
11744 write(2, "(EE) fglrx(0): PowerXpress: Fail"..., 61) = 61
11744 write(0, "(EE) fglrx(0): PowerXpress: Fail"..., 61) = 61
11744 write(0, "[  2286.686] ", 13)     = 13
11744 write(0, "(WW) fglrx(0): PreInit PowerXpre"..., 42) = 42
11744 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---

I even tried building the packages myself to see if that helped, it
didn't :(
