I've picked a bunch of these over.  I didn't take ae92180 because it 
enables an extension (GL_ARB_draw_instanced) that wasn't previously 
enabled on 8.0.x.  I'd do some more tomorrow.

Note: I haven't picked over any to core Gallium or Gallium drivers.  I 
can't test those, so I don't feel comfortable doing that on the eve of a 
"stable" release.
