[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] glx: load dri driver with RTLD_LOCAL so dlclose never fails to unload

[j.glisse at gmail.com]

From: Jerome Glisse <jglisse at redhat.com>

There is no reason anymore to load with RTLD_GLOBAL and for some driver
this even result in dlclose failing to unload leading to catastrophic
failure with swrast fallback.
