This commit Well, there's a small problem with that. libGLU in XFree86 has enhancements which allow it to be driven by XFree86's hardware acceleration. So by some measure of appropriateness it does "belong" there. Too bad nobody in the FreeBSD project appears directly involved in the development of XFree86 that could give us the answers. > is wrong and I wish you really would have had waited more than a > couple of hours so that we (portmgr) could discuss this before you > committed it.
