Well, this poses the question : what should we do regarding broken libraries
Wine depends upon ? Add 'incorrect' code in Wine (although in this case,
it's not THAT incorrect :-) ) or report the bug to the library maintainers
and wait for them to fix the issue ?

Note that according to some DRI maintainer 'I had forgotten that the old
libGL was that broken' :-)
