I guess the other obscurity with libGL in particular is that the legal
status of the installed libGL is not even KNOWN to a GPLed program, so
if it is the case that linking against it (in whatever fashion) is not
legal, then the onus is really on the end user to decide what is right
and wrong since they choose which libGL they use.
The GPL is great in spirit, but sometimes it can be a real pain in the
ass.
