... the hole idea of having this error out is a gross workaround imho.
While I could not find anything concrete to point out initially seems
like you have found it. And now we add a workaround on top of the
workaround :-\
Yes it is (very) unlikely that radeonsi GPUs will have 2d accel
without glamor and yes it is required in those cases. But that does
not mean that we must mandate egl+drm but recommend it ? After all one
can have egl+wayland+radeonsi mesa (without egl+drm) on a xserver-less
setup, can't they ?
So what I'm proposing here is that we change the AC_MSG_ERROR to
AC_MSG_WARN and drop this patch.

P.S. Pardon for the wall of text.
