I should have also said that this series requires my previous 2 GLX 
fixes patches (posted yesterday).  The whole thing is available at:

       git://anongit.freedesktop.org/~idr/mesa GLX_ARB_create_context

As soon as patches 05/20 and 15/20 reviewed and committed, I will send 
the xserver patches out for review.  These are the patches that add the 
new entry-points in dri_interface.h for DRI2 and DRISW.
