Actually, I'd rather use the debian packages; building on top of those is
way easier, because someone already did the hard work...
mkdir mesa-build ; cd mesa-build
apt-get source mesa
(copy patches to debian/patches and add them to series)
dch -l r300ppc (for a local revision)
and dpkg-buildpackage (probably with -b only).
