Well, I am at least partially responsible for this problem.... Basically, I
am extra-strict in the Wine OpenGL code when checking for the presence of
the glXGetProcAddressARB call (ie I not only check for the presence of the
symbol with dlopen / dlsym but also check for the presence of the
'GLX_ARB_get_proc_address' string in the GLX extension string reported by
the server).

When I last raised this issue on this list, I was told that the new DRI
release would fix this and report this extension. I could look in my mailing
list archives to see who told that and when :-)

Anyway, if you have the Wine source tree, you have to only change one line
to fix this issue :-)
