Download this:
<URL:http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2002/12/01/debian/pool/main/x/xfree86/xlibmesa3_4.2.1-4_i386.deb>

You'll need a couple of dummy packages (xlibmesa3-gl, xlibmesa3-glu). For
that, "apt-get install equivs" then run equivs-build once for each of the
attached files.

Install (as root, assuming the same directory): dpkg -i xlibmesa3*deb

Boldly going forward because we can't find 'reverse'!
