This definitely won't work; you need to set this before you
create the context. For example, use the GLDrawableFactory and
set up the GLCapabilities when you call createGLAnimCanvas.
However, I'm not sure what depth buffer sizes most current
hardware supports. I think the GLDrawableFactory will return null
if the requested depth can't be satisfied, but am not sure.
