The configure flag is --enable-gl-osmesa. The difference with
--with-driver=osmesa is that you link to libGL instead of libmesa.a
and friends, so you couldn't distribute libOSMesa.so standalone. See
CORE_MESA in src/mesa/drivers/osmesa/Makefile.

I think the osmesa code is the same, it's just a matter of symbol
resolution. The build machinery doesn't currently support gl +
standalone osmesa in one pass, though.
