Summary: segmentation fault with Mesa 7.2

Initial Comment:
Hi,

I'm running Debian Sid with Mesa 7.2 from experimental (needed for Direct Rendering to work with my card [ATI Radeon X1400]).

The following snippet produces a segfault:
from OpenGL.GLUT import *
glutInit(["test"])
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_RGB)

When I downgrade Mesa to 7.0.3, I have no DRI anymore, but also the segfault goes away.
I attach a backtrace from gdb, in the hope that helps somehow -- if you need more info, please ask :)

Regards
Evgeni

It basically suggests to turn off opengl error checking. It solves the
issue

I downgraded to mesa 7.0.3 and still get segmentation fault. tried it with
b6 and b5 too. If i downgrade the pyopengl package to 2.0.1 everything
works fine.
