vc-graphics is the original package before the userland sources were
made available; in principle the two should be equivalent, but the last
time I tried to build userland, which admittedly is two or three months
back, it was failing miserably due to some missing broadcom headers that
were nowhere to be found among the released sources. I assume the
userland packages now build OK?
