"Old GLSL compiler" meaning the compiler stack in 7.8?  Or does it mean
the old 965 back-end in 7.9?  Both 7.9 and 7.10 include the rewritten
compiler.  The primary difference between 7.9 and 7.10 is that 7.10
includes a new back-end for 965 hardware that does not use the old Mesa IR.

Thanks for cherry picking d18df9e3 and for the comments on the other
commits.
