We already have the first half of this fix: the glxext.c half.

  $Id: 104_sparc_fix_GL_library.diff 1307 2004-04-23 11:27:55Z fabbione $

  As XFree86 puts it:

    Fix sparc asm glapi initialisation in libGL when using indirect rendering
    (GLX) (Bugzilla #923, Ferris McCormick).

  Also see Debian #241331.

  This was adapted from revision 1.22 of xc/lib/GL/glx/glxext.c in XFree86
  CVS.

  This patch by Ferris McCormick.

That went in in 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1.

I guess we need the other half, too.  I'll add it.
