well, I guess we can punt on this one.. it seems kind of asymmetrical
to the get_handle API to not support the various different sorts of
handles..  But I still end up running into problems, since I end up
with two different 'fd_device' instances (so two sets of hashtables to
track already-imported-handles/etc) between the ddx code and xa
(gallium)..

In the end just using -modesetting+glamor seems like an easier fix..
