Thanks for your contribution. I'm going to go ahead and upload this fix to precise, and then oneiric-proposed. Someone from the SRU team should be around soon to accept the upload and begin the verification process.
For reference, xvba-video has a versioned dependency on fglrx-driver, and provides can't be used to satisfy a versioned dependency, which is why fglrx-updates providing fglrx-driver isn't sufficient in this case:
If a relationship field has a version number attached, only
real packages will be considered to see whether the
relationship is satisfied (or the prohibition violated, for a
conflict or breakage). In other words, if a version number is
specified, this is a request to ignore all Provides for that
package name and consider only real packages.
