I got an updated version of Mesa from someone on the PLIB list that fixes 
the problem, but I'd be happy to revert to the old Mesa and try to patch 
PLIB.

Be a bit more specific about what you mean by waiting though-- do you 
mean that within glIsValidContext(), if glXGetCurrentContext() returns 
NULL, we should literally sleep() for a second or two?  Or were you 
thinking of something subtler?
