Bug#364228: fixed in mesa 6.4.2-1

[Marcelo E. Magallon]

Hi,

 sorry about the late reply, the mail got filed in a place I didn't
 expect it to show up.

 I might be wrong, but doesn't that create a circular dependency?

 Well, I can go hunting for the mail if you wish (I'd rather not), but I
 remember making the change prompted by a mail of yours.  I obviously
 misunderstood.

 So, it's SPARC-only then?

 Ah, yes, sorry... I still owe you that mail.

 Let's see...

 If I start any OpenGL client with the optimized libraries I get a
 missing symbol (gl_dispatch_functions_start).

 The symbol is defined (says me) in mesa-6.4.2/src/mesa/x86/glapi_x86.S
 and there's a line:

    HIDDEN(GLNAME(gl_dispatch_functions_start))

 I tried removing this line and the problem persists.  Since I found no
 reports of such a problem I assumed it has something to do with the one
 thing that different in sid at the moment: GCC 4.1.

 I think I alsa tried with

    GLOBL GLNAME(gl_dispatch_functions_start)

 but I'm not sure honestly.
