Although a very convenient definition, it doesn't work either. The
point in question is GL support. Noone is even *thinking* about
getting Utah-GLX to work with 4.0 (that would be a major waste of
effort), but right now there are people who would prefer to use Utah
over GLX for a bunch of different reasons: to name one, DRI's resource
management is different than Utah's, and Utah's has some advantages for
some people.

What value judgement are you talking about? This is a (measurable)
technical issue.
