That function is obtained from VdpGetProcAddress like the other ones. The
libvdpau frontend has no clue how to backend-specific render GPU surfaces
to X11. This must be provided by the backend of course.

I know it's used in VLC, and a quick search show it is used by gst-vdpau
and DirectFB as well. I believe it is used in mplayer too.
