    I think I'd go ahead and make the same change for version, renderer,
    and vendor now that the context is directly available.

    Although, I've never heard of MESA_INFO before. It doesn't appear in
    any of my IRC logs going back to April 2011 so I don't think anyone
    else even knows about it, much less suggests it for debugging. It's
    also not mentioned in the Mesa docs.

    I don't see any information in it that would be useful that glxinfo
    doesn't already provide. Maybe we should just throw the whole function
    out.

The MESA_INFO env var is ancient, but seldom used.

I agree with Courtney though in that it's different from glxinfo in that it can tell us exactly what context profile/version/extensions are being used by the application. For that reason it's probably more useful now than in the past.

Matt, we don't have ctx->Renderer and ctx->Vendor strings so we have to keep calling _mesa_GetString() for those.

I'm OK with the patch as-is.
