I do think something like that is the correct solution however, although I
wouldn't check for depth == 24 (probably won't work for X servers running in
depth 16) but for depth == (red + green + blue) (so there's no alpha).

Anyway, the X video driver no longer has any influence on the GLX visuals or
fbconfigs, it's all between the X server and the Mesa driver now. As this
problem was probably triggered by an X server change I'm reassigning there, but
be prepared for a NOTOURBUG resolution.
