Well, to be fair you were mostly getting lucky with a special case.
Like Ian says, trying to link with 2 different OpenGL libraries is a
little dicey. People building a DRI-enabled GL weren't offered this
possibility. Still, I feel bad that we didn't think of this issue at
the time.

A possible compromise here would be to put glX* stubs in OSMesa, but
_that_ seems perverse, too.

I'd kind of like to have OSMesa just be --{enable,disable}-osmesa
since it's completely standalone now. It would make some of the build
code less scary, too.
