Precisely, mesa currently requires DRM headers if you want to build
swrast_dri.so on all Linux kernels. That's what bit us when the static
build of swrast was removed from the server.

In the end, it all works fine on all arches. Only swrast is ever built
on hppa (using real DRM kernel headers) and it just works, even though
there are no DRMed DRI drivers...
