I'll pipe in to add that this bit us (Gentoo) in the past as well.

For some unknown reason, DRI support was disabled in our packages for
HPPA and alpha. When swrast's build was moved from the server back into
mesa, the situation got painful for us.

It turns out DRI works (as in: builds) fine on those arches, so we can
build mesa's swrast and the server just fine, but the situation was more
complex than I anticipated.

I don't quite remember the details anymore, but maybe something could be
improved there?

Food for thoughts...
