I'm not concerned about the server-side software rendering code; that can 
provide stale GL support for all the value it has to real applications; to 
some extent, it would actually be a feature to use pure client-side 
rendering instead as it's faster...

I am, however, concerned about the interdependencies between the low level 
2D driver, the DRM and the Mesa GL driver.  If Mesa ships a DRM based 
driver which must be mated to a specific 2D driver, then we need to figure 
out who's going to ship what pieces.
