Ian,
I think I'm going to have to ask you to broaden your horizons a little
on this. There's no reason at all you can't be testing softpipe or
llvmpipe, and these are much better vehicles for shader-related testing
than swrast will ever be.
I can't see any reason to be making this sort of statement when there
are a choice of two software rasterizers you can look at. It's not like
we're talking about some out-of-tree component - you already have the
code, you just have to build it and drop it into your testing.
