Most of libGLcore.{a,so} is code from somewhere in Mesa. Ideally this
would be replaced by some sort of software rendering "DRI" module that
could be loaded into the server. Some of the work that I'm doing to
generate GLX protocol code using scripts will help grease the skids for
this. libglx.a contains all of the GLX protocol code, and that pulls in
some Mesa code and will pull in some code from src/glx/x11 (notably
indirect_size.[ch]). I'm not (yet) convinced that libglx should come
from Mesa.
