We need to arrive at a situation where both will compile under
the standard header that Linux OpenGL Base has-blessed/will-bless.
If binary portability is to be guaranteed (surely a requirement
if we are to get commercial OpenGL-based games under Linux in
significant numbers) - then all Linux OpenGL's *MUST* be happy
with a single common header. One major goal of the Linux
OpenGL Base standard is to ensure that happens.
