I guess that the "magic" SGI environment variable GLFORCEDIRECT could
be worth looking into as well. All I know about it is that it has some
role to play when using remote GL between SGIs. A quick search gave the
following:

Can I forward SGI GL connections over ssh?

It is not likely that this will be implemented. GL uses a totally
different protocol from X, and at least gld would have to be replaced.
OpenGL, when run as an X server extension, should pose no problem. You
may need to set the environment variable GLFORCEDIRECT=no.
