Here's a few items:

1. The files in Mesa/src/X86/ were changed and the configure script
sometimes fails there.

2. If the MesaDemos.tar file isn't unpacked with the MesaLib.tar
file then configure/make dies because of a GLUT problem.

There were more that I can't remember off-hand, and there's a
few other issues in the Mesa bug database.
