More recently I had (somewhere) suggested the Mir server interfaces for
testing the alpha channel are inadequate. Mir should be able to support
the case where an alpha channel exists but is unwanted (similar to
glDisable(GL_BLEND)). See also bug 1667577.
That said, bug 1480755 is only a reduction in performance. If Pete is
saying that Unity8 doesn't work at all then this would be a duplicate of
bug 1560498 (which is actually not what was copied and pasted into the
description above from bug 1480755).
** Summary changed:

Unity8 using vmwgfx_dri.so crashed in
mir::graphics::nested::detail::DisplayBuffer::make_current() ->
eglMakeCurrent() -> ... -> dri2_image_get_buffers() [platform_mir.c:138]

Bug description:
Related to this bug (bug #1480755) - this is the issue preventing
unity8/mir working in VMware.
Bringing it out into its own issue to improve visibility.
Choice quotes from previous bug:
The problem is (annoyingly) that Mesa 10.5.9 on wily (Intel Haswell)
returns 7 compatible EGLConfigs for EGL_ALPHA_SIZE=0 but all of them
have EGL_ALPHA_SIZE == 8 set.
Added a Mesa task. RAOF has suggested we should just fix Mesa. When
asking for RGBA of 8880 it should provide at least one EGLConfig that
is 8880 instead of always 8888.
This should be possible. It's not entirely clear why we're not getting
XRGB visuals currently, but it's fixable.
