Some work was done of SLI and FSAA. That was back in the fall before
3dfx pulled the spending plug. It is in the tree and was starting to
show some function at the time. (Read, not really functional, but if you
setup a special test case you could make it do something) 3dfx was going
to do the rest on their own, then they got bought and all work
stopped. Bill White thought he might continue in his spare time, but I
haven't seen anything from him lately.

So, the answer is that right now it is dead, and there are no plans to
revive it. If someone was really dedicated they might be able to revive
it, but they'd have to figure out what to do from the Glide and X
sources, since no docs are available.
