Okay, I'll use a sibling directory for now, then. It'll be easy enough 
to change later if need be, and a pkgconfig file should make it easy for 
other builds to deal with any changes.

I also still need to update the example libglvnd-based Mesa to match the 
changes to libglvnd itself. I'll try to get that done by today or 
tomorrow, though.
