It seems to me that whatever reason Xorg needs to build mesa for (I'm 
guessing the indirect GLX software rasterizer) is a mistake.

If mesa is to be built, it should be built within the tree it is 
developed.  That might mean that Mesa should learn how to build itself 
in a form suitable for use as X.org's internal rasterizer, or better 
still now that we have AIGLX approaching, that Mesa grows a DRI 
software-only rasterizer that Xorg can use when a hardware driver for 
AIGLX isn't available.
