This appears to be correct.
Relevant section from the GLX_ARB_create_context extension:
* If <config> does not support compatible OpenGL contexts
providing the requested API major and minor version,
forward-compatible flag, and debug context flag, GLXBadFBConfig
is generated.
(<a href="http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/ARB/glx_create_context.txt">http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/ARB/glx_create_context.txt</a>)
This is indeed not a bug. Sorry for the noise.</pre>
