+   WATCH OUT! On Linux it is quite frequent to have both Mesa and proprietary
+              openGL libraries installed. This may lead to big problems at
+	      runtime if the linker picks the wrong library. It is often the
+	      the case between the static (libGL.a) Mesa library and the dynamic
+	      (libGL.so) NVidia library. It is very important to assert that
+	      the link is done with the library matching the openGL driver
+	      loaded in the X server.
