Unknown to James at the time we do have a way of disabling this in live builds.

I'll note it here so that someone else who stumbles on a similar issue can know
how to grab a working trace of our options window.

In ~/.local/share/feral-interactive/{GAMENAME}/preferences there'll be a key
called "AvoidSwapInjectionDuringPGOW" that basically does what it says on the
tin - setting it to 0 will prevent our steam overlay avoidance occurring.

If that key doesn't exist then it's an older game without the swap hack.

I've seen the mesa-dev patch mail, thanks Marek!
