For me it only helped to actually link glxcompmgr statically to a
patched Mesa (well, the patch wasn't included upstream at that time).

Did you compile Mesa with dri support? Only in that case the relevant
GLX part is compiled and linked into the library...
Yes, I know, you won't actually need anything dri related for this.
