Yeah, I agree. It's pretty common for things that are just API sugar to start life as dummy_true. The risk is generally low. It may be a bit higher in this case since there's a LOT of sugar, but I'm not terribly worried. _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
