Public bug reported:

I have found this bug after the updating my ubuntu 14.04 with previously
installed fglrx that was working well before this update. After this
update that had included kernel update I have restarter PC and was
unable to login: after the login attempt, system returns to the login
screen.

This behavior is reproducible after the fglrx install in any way: by the installer from the amd site or by the "Additional Drivers" tab.
Looks like the problem is caused by the fglrx-core kernel module build fail that is always reproducible in the install process.
And looks like it is not depends on the fglrx driver version.
