The old OpenGL patch...

[Robert Roebling]

  Hi,

while looking at the patches, I also looked at the old
OpenGL patch. I haven't used OpenGL in any non-trivial
way sofar, but the idea to separate the context from
the visual seems very obvious. The patch has been
tested on GTK and MSW and it also is documented. I'm
in favor of applying it, but I cannot do the Mac part
of the patch. We can a) let bitrot happen b) apply it
and hope for a helpful soul on the Mac c) declare the
patch wrong. I favour b) but I cannot be that soul.
