More accurately, I should have said the X4 tdfx driver no longer knows
anything about glide2.
Sadly, it is very likely non-trivial to get the tdfx driver working with
both glide2 and DRI source wise, let alone run time.

"arguing semantics" is not the same as "arguing nomenclature". My DI
was very good at arguing semantics. He had this funny idea that an
"unloaded" weapon was one that you had personally inspected and that
the semantic difference mattered. Something about not wanting to do
the paperwork of one of us killed someone with an unloaded weapon.
Most technical debates are ultimately about semantics, but that
doesn't mean that they are unimportant.
