Ahh, ok, thanks. So when the regular "fink remove system-libgl" fails with
complaints that like a dozen other packages depend on system-libgl, this
dpkg trick will work in a roughly nondisruptive way? Something else that
provides 'libgl' will be re-installed from the new system-xfree86? This
solution sounds possibly destructive, so I just want to be sure.

Thanks Ben :)
