You need to be careful with this. I read somewhere that using strstr to check 
for an opengl extension in an extension list is discourage because it can 
find false positives. Especially in this case, if you have, say:

wined3d_settings.disabled_extensions = "GL_NV_texture_shader3 
GL_NV_vertex_program2_option GL_NV_vertex_program3"

Then if you check for "GL_NV_texture_shader", "GL_NV_vertex_program2", 
or "GL_NV_vertex_program", they'll all show up as being disabled, when 
they're not. Which is a double problem because "GL_NV_vertex_program1_1" 
would still be enabled, which requires "GL_NV_vertex_program".

AFAIK, the proper way to check for OpenGL extensions in a space-delimitted 
list is like this:

const char *ptr = strstr(wined3d_settings.disabled_extensions, ThisExtn);
if(ptr) {
    if(ptr == wined3d_settings.disabled_extensions || isspace(ptr[-1])) {
        int len = strlen(ThisExtn);
        if(!ptr[len] || isspace(ptr[len])) {
            /* is disabled */
        }
    }
}
