Mesa supports GL_ARB_fragment_program with indirect rendering, I might
have pushed a patch into Mesa at some point to make it work but it must
have been some time ago so mesa 6.5 and later should be fine.
ATI's and nvidia's GL libraries probably don't support
GL_ARB_fragment_program with indirect rendering so an application linked
to those will not see this extension even though xgl supports it.
compiz must be linked to mesa's GL library to work anyhow so it
shouldn't be a problem there.
