That was kind of the original question. Is there an ABI issue? The only way for applications to get at the GLSL compiler is through the GL interface. The GL interface is entirely C-based and *must* remain unchanged. The application has no way to know what we used for the internals. Technically, we ought to be able to do it in Cobol, but we don't hate ourselves that much.
