Understood.

One question though.  It seems that this is being removed because 
someone could compile against GLX 1.4 and then try to run with GLX 1.3.  
Wouldn't that be considered an error?  I mean if someone compiled 
against version 2.0 of a library and then ran with version 1.1 of the 
library would we really say the OpenSG code is at fault for thinking 
that the library include the symbols that were detected and used at 
compile time?

IMHO I think GV's idea of adding a configure flag seems a little more 
reasonable of a solution to this problem.
