Using a more recent nv25 classic mesa, I get no crash/bug, no validate
-12,  but I still get all the reserve_ram_pages_type errors. They
always come up on every new level started in etracer.
So the game will run at 0fps for 10-30 seconds displaying >10
reserve_ram_pages_type failed errors, and then it will run fine.

Maarten seemed to say these errors were a big deal, so I thought I
would share my new way to generate a lot of them.

I would be curious to know the link between this scenario and the
"loading big picture in firefox one" that goes like this :
two "validate: -12" + one "reserve_ram_pages_type failed"
