And as the type of a context is not referred to elsewhere in the spec
from a quick search, what type it is can be ignored.  Then from the
following paragraph, ctx->Color.DrawBuffer[0] should probably be set
in _mesa_make_current when the context is first made current instead
of in _mesa_init_color.
