This was due to being a bit lazy in wrapping the 2.0 version, I used 
precisely the same code as in the ARB extension, and in doing so made 
the core code depend on the ARB version of the functionality. bzr head 
*should* now fix this, though as the code actually worked on my machine 
I can't be sure the problem is actually fixed on true core-only 
profiles.  BTW, your script there works fine on GLSL 1.3, which is what 
Intel integrated graphics provides these days (at least on Linux).

Thanks,
Mike
