hi;

I'd like to point out that this is a build-time requirement for
libepoxy only: if the app does not use GLX on the Apple X server, then
the GLX code is never even loaded.

it'd be nice to have a libepoxy build that does not require X11 on
MacOS, but that would make it harder to have applications linking
against libepoxy run on the X server on that platform. whether or not
that is a long term strategy is a discussion worth having with Eric.

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
