Cool Thanks!

Speaking of client, I noticed that the target libgl-xlib is about
twice as fast as dri-swrastg due to it using XShmPutImage instead of
using XPutImage. Maybe it would be a good idea to try and add that to
drisw. Either by using the xlib winsys on the client or defining
winsys_handle and using that to pass down a pre-malloced surface.

Cheers Jakob.
