Actually, *all* APIs don't require it per sampler. It's just the
*optional* AMD extension which exposes it and which we don't have to
implement, and I seriously doubt any app will use that.
BTW, I have pushed all the patches which had been acked. I take back
all the patches related to seamless_cube_map in gallium and am going
to make new ones.
