Classic mesa can produce only DRI drivers, whereas gallium can do alot more -
dri, vdpau, xvmc, omx, opencl...

Currently only classic dri drivers build into megadriver (mesa_dri_drivers.so)

Same hardware, different drivers developed via different infrastructure by
different teams. Is it that confusing :P
Named in the same way so that people can simply make install, and things just
work(tm). If you're building both, then you need to keep an eye open to install
the one you want. Simples :-)
FWIW the build should be fine now, thanks for the report.

configure: enable the drm pipe-loader for non swrast drivers
All hardware drivers including the virtual vmwgfx require
the drm pipe-loader in order to be properly loaded by xa,
gbm and opencl.
Note this does _not_ add support for the above three it only
allows the pipe driver to be loaded by the library.
Eg. GBM will now properly open the pipe-i915 driver, should
one be working on the such hardware.</pre>
