This was my initial impression also ... but I'm not sure what happens 
here but unit tests (glx-test) for some reason completely explode if you 
take out the null check and try running 'make check'.

I think that is why also the dummyContext is introduced in those tests. 
I played around a bit with this change and linking phase with glx-test 
starts to print quite weird errors, actually complete unrelated ones, I 
guess because it cannot find the 'extern' declared 'dummyContext'. I'm 
not sure if this is actually problem with the tests rather than this code.
