That commit message exaggerates a little when it says "proper 
refcounting", because it only refcounts on bind (in driFetchDrawable), 
but not on create/destroy. With current Mesa the following happens:
create glXPbuffer: dri drawable is created, refcount=0
bind it: refcount++
unbind it: refcount--, drawable is destroyed
bind again: create new drawable, refcount=1
unbind again: refcount--, drawable is destroyed
etc.

They also say that "current unbind logic will leak drawables until the 
process dies", which is simply not true. The glXDestroy* calls properly 
dispose of the corresponding dri objects.

With GLX 1.3 the dri drawables are correctly created and destroyed along 
with their corresponding glx objects even without the above commit. IMHO 
if someone deliberately uses GLX 1.2 or earlier, they know what they are 
doing (1.3 was released in 1998). I'd say that it's never safe to 
destroy a dri object until it's explicitly destroyed by the user, so I'm 
still convinced that my patch is correct.
