if in fact this is true (i'll take your word for it) someone should
probably make a .deb that downloads and installs the newer glext.h.  it'll
take some trickery to get the overrrides and alternatives right, but
nothing that can't be done.  it'll have to cooperate with mesa and xfree
maintainers, too- even less fun.  maybe xfree and mesa developers will
upgrade their version of the file soon?
