Hi Timo,
well since I filed this bug I've had discussions with Thunderbird:
The problem is that pbo's are not implemented on older cards, because the
current implementeation relies on GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object.

Older cards (like my TNT2) do have GL_EXT_pixel_buffer_object, which does
almost exaclty the same thing, but according to Roderick, with a little more
housekeeping required.  This would be the way to go.

Perhaps I should open another bug to explicitly state this, and pester
Roderick/Stefan some more :)

See http://wiki.winehq.org/DirectDraw under 'Direct framebuffer access'.
