>Description:

x11-toolkits/qt32 has this snippet in the Makefile:

pre-everything::
        @${ECHO_MSG} '===> **************************************************'
        @${ECHO_MSG} '===> NOTE: Use of WITH_OPENGL is not recommended with'
        @${ECHO_MSG} '===> the NVidia drivers provided by the x11/nvidia port'
        @${ECHO_MSG} '===> If you use these drivers, we recommend you press'
        @${ECHO_MSG} '===> Ctrl-C now and set WITHOUT_OPENGL'
        @${ECHO_MSG} '===> **************************************************'
.endif

This seems to be out of date, at least with respect to 5.2BETA, and
possibly back to 5.1 and earlier if the mailing lists are correct.

Specifically, I built qt32 after installing x11/nvidia with WITHOUT_OPENGL
set on 5.2BETA, and then built KDE.  There were no problems with KDE apps
crashing on exit.

I then removed everything, and rebuilt without WITHOUT_OPENGL set.  The 
system has remained stable, even after running the most demanding GL
applications (the GL screensaver hacks from the xscreensaver port... :-) )

So consider this an additional data point when deciding whether or not
to remove the pre-everything: check (or, at least conditionalise it on
FreeBSD versions lower than 5.2).
