You might be interested in the 'sci' GLEW branch:

   http://shigeru.sci.utah.edu:1234/git/?p=glew.git;a=summary

it is essentially a library which provides all of the GL symbols but without
linking against any GL implementation.  Client libraries/applications can give
a path of to the GL implementation and it will dynamically load it at runtime.

I have not yet added OSMesa symbols to the default configuration, but it can
use OSMesaGetProcAddress internally, and I will need to add support for OSMesa
for my own purposes soon enough... perhaps you'd like to help?

We're also actively working to get this into upstream GLEW, and could always
use help on that front, too.
