With mesa, a driver that only supports GL 3.1 will still be recognized
as a core context. It has to jump through hoops on, say, NVIDIA
though, since that returns a context that has ARB_compatibility
exposed and so it goes back and requests a GL3.2 core context. At
least one piece of hardware I semi-care about (Adreno A3XX) will
likely have GL 3.1, but never get GL 3.2 due to lack of GS.
