We support SDL; that's what all our pygame activities use.  I believe
we are only specifically talking about GLX support (that's OpenGL
directly implemented by the X server) at this time.  Since we're doing
software rendering in any case, GLX (Mesa in the X server) is not
substantially differenent from linking Mesa directly to your
application.
