Yeah, I agree.
I guess once I saw it work, it seemed like a great idea as it was so
easy. :)
You are right though, it's especially bad because it's a kit that is
used by
other things.
Here is the tricky situation we are in:
- Mesa compiles fine under Haiku gcc4 without any issues and is rock
solid.
- mesa_software_renderer had to be updated to work with the new Mesa
version as
we are using non-public API's
- In recent Mesa releases, a core complicated part of mesa (GL
shaders) has
been rewritten in not non-c99 friendly C++ which.
