For Xgl to work properly you need GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer support and
if you're using the intel driver you also need a version with scissor
box initialization fixed.

HEAD and mesa 6.5, includes copy_sub_buffer support and should have the
scissor box initialization right.

mesa_6_4_branch, doesn't have copy_sub_buffer support. scissor box
initialization should be right, though.

mesa 6.4.2, doesn't have copy_sub_buffer support or the scissor box
right.


A copy_sub_buffer patch for mesa 6.4.2 can be found in the mailing list
archives and a scissor box fix can be found in bugzilla.
