This patch *really* needed a complete commit message so you could explain what you were doing. Something like: "Export from gl.pc whether the drivers are built with TLS enabled. The X Server doesn't enable the TLS loader by default because of some unspecified interaction with selinux, which may or may not be enabled. But if the Mesa drivers are built for TLS and the server isn't, it will fail to load the drivers due to unresolved symbols. So, expose the TLS build information so the server can potentially detect and build with TLS when it must at the expense of selinux." But this is still a lame way to go about it. Get the server fixed for whatever fixable selinux problem ajax was talking about, and enable TLS by default on linux, period.
