The answer to this question seems to be: Because this patch (Replace broken GLX visual setup with a fixed "all" mode) adds the "best_score" varible, but does not initialize it to zero. Having fixed this, I'm down to 33 X-visuals, and 33 GLX visuals. "glxinfo" on my FC6 machine still complains about "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual", but this might of course be a problem with glxinfo rather than the X server.

This problem turned out to be limited to depth=16. It goes away with this patch:

I have no idea why. The output from xdpyinfo doesn't change. Output from glxinfo changes only with (this is the visual created by the Composite extension):

plus that I get a bunch of information instead of the error message.
