Sorry about that, now I know I shouldn't have edited that files.  For
future reference those creating new extensions should:
  - add temporary values to glx.h with an 'X' appended to indicate a
    temporary value (e.g. INTELX_swap_event)
  - never edit glxext.h
  - remove the temp values once the updated glxext.h arrives from the
    registry

Is that all Ian?

Thanks,
