[Bug 73528] Deferred lighting in Second Life causes system hiccups and screen flickering

--- Comment #7 from MirceaKitsune <sonichedgehog_hyperblast00 at yahoo.com> ---
I brought this up on IRC last night, and was advised to do a GIT bisect or an
apitrace. Since I have no idea when the issue started happening and I can't
risk crashing my machine dozens of times, I can't try GIT bisect myself. I was
however able to do an apitrace, which also produces the crash when played back.
As requested, I packed it as an xz archive and uploaded it. This should allow
anyone who can't try the Second Life viewer themselves to reproduce the crash.

Unpack that somewhere, then run the command "glretrace
./do-not-directly-run-kokua-bin.trace" from the same directory. Be prepared for
a system freeze, and only do this on a machine where it's safe! Also, post a
comment here if that link stops working, so I can re-post the trace file if
needed.

I crashed my machine 5 times in order to record this. So I'd appreciate it if
someone could make the effort worth it and please test this more in depth, to
see where the issue really takes place in the MESA code.
