I suppose, since we seem to have argued that you MUST
check that the function exists in this context using
glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS) for EXT/ARB functions
or glGetString(GL_VERSION) for OpenGL 1.N functions
(N>1) - then it should always be an error for that
function to be non-existant since that would imply
that you had not bothered to check.

Yep - I guess it should raise an error.

A counter-argument is just that it makes it harder
to implement wglGetProcAddress.
