You could try disabling the feature on your own system to see if it's
doing what you expect it.  This might give you a santity test before
you starting pushing it out to users to test.

Another thing it'd be worth doing right now is email the users and get
them to send you info about the OpenGL driver like the GL_RENDERER,
GL_VENDOR and GL_VERSION strings.  glxinfo provides this under unices
which have X11.  You'll probably need to go to some gui widget to get
this info.  Could you pass what info get back on to me as I might be
able to suggest what strings would be worth trying.

If we can do it just on the RENDERER string then we'll be able to use
what functionality is built into the OSG extension disable mechanism.

Another route we could possible explore is to have a
GLExtensionDisableCallback mechanism where responsibility of deciding
if a feature is support is left up to app developer.  Perhaps it
should be GLExtensionSupportedCallback though as otherwise we might
start getting in double negatives which can be confusing.
