I applied patches 1-3 on a local branch and tested softpipe.  No 
regressions with conform or any clip-related piglit tests.

BTW, maybe someone can implement the corresponding gallium changes. 
This shouldn't be much more than bumping PIPE_MAX_CLIP_PLANES to 8, 
adding a new PIPE_CAP_MAX_CLIP_PLANES, setting 
ctx->Const.MaxClipPlanes in the state tracker (default to 6 if 
PIPE_CAP_MAX_CLIP_PLANES returns zero) and doing some testing.
