I see differences in chipset support for nouveau between MesaLib.old and
MesaLib in xsrc, this could cause glamor to not initialize.

You may be running software rendering, just on a fast CPU.

Try running 'glxinfo -B' to see how it is configured.

I think that either modular Xorg if you want to run NetBSD 10, or
building MesaLib instead of the default MesaLib.old in -current will
give you a version of mesa with better support for that GPU.
