I second the following: comment #3, comment #5, comment #10, comment #13

Daniel van Vogut: 'find /var/lib/dkms/fglrx-updates -name make.log' and a sudo-ed variant return nothing.
No sign of any log file at /var/lib/dkms/fglrx-updates/8.982/build/

Trying the workaround proposed in comment #4:
Edited /usr/src/fglrx-updates-8.982/dkms.conf (removed fix-build-issue-on-i386-where-TS_USEDFPU-is-no-longe.patch and replace-for_each_cpu_mask-with-for_each_possible_cpu.patch)
sudo dpkg-reconfigure fglrx-updates
was not enough, I needed an additional run of
sudo dpkg --configure fglrx-updates
and
sudo dpkg-reconfigure fglrx-updates
because the first run of dpkg-reconfigure complained about an unfinished installation of fglrx-updates.

Then the modules are build.
The warnings as of comment #5 still persist:

Removing all DKMS Modules
Done.

I hope things don't break badly when I reboot.
