I haven't been able to duplicate it here (i.e. it always returns true on 
a Linux amd box).  My guess is that we are seeing an error from earlier 
in the process startup being interpreted as "function doesn't exist" 
when loading that function, but I can't see *how* that would occur, as 
the actual code to get the entry point shouldn't care about OpenGL errors.

Sorry to not be much help here,
Mike
