The work itself is quite interesting thanks for that !

Is it me or the newly added code (with patch 3) seems intermittently
broken (fixed with patch 4), and then removed with a later patch (5) ?
Should one factor the common pageflip code first, then add the
distinction between dri2 and present flips, then finally add the dri2
implementation ?

Emil
