i tested on amdgpu ("R7", seems to be GCN 3, from bristol ridge APU),
radeon 5450 (trusty!), and llvmpipe on pinebookpro.  seems at least
as functional as old mesa with a few tests.

rjs had reported a prior issue i don't recall, but this seems like a
good time to at least test, and we can revert if there's something
immediately bad to deal with..
