Comment:

 I did a bit of hacking on the fedora mesa packages to get it to build the
 'linux' target (thanks for the tip, ajax).  There appears to have been
 some bit-rot on the non-DRI packaging in the Fedora mesa SRPMS (filenames,
 selinux support, etc) so I had to do a bit of patching here and there.
 I'm not 100% positive it's perfect, but it compiles, builds, and runs.
 I'm sure it's not ready to be checked into anything.

 My hardware here is a PIC running the 20070507 devel-ext3 image booting to
 the develboard target. Performance on glxgears is about 50 fps.  For quick
 comparison, my MacBook Pro runs about 4500fps.

 The OpenGL app I wanted to run (homegrown) is dreadfully slow, but I'm
 just learning OpenGL programming.  There are also other OpenGL software
 renderers which aim for speed - Mesa aims for correctness.

 I put the packages up here in case anybody is interested:
