Comment (by kencu):

 the problem is there is no hardware acceleration for EGL like there is for
 GLX, so last time I enabled EGL, which is now trivially-easy to do, and
 built some things against it, it was absolutely dog-slow and (IMHO) seemed
 unusable.

 The Apple video driver is not open-source, I read in the mesa mailing
 list, and so adding such support is apparently not trivial.

 I heard there was some interest in the mesa groups about reverse-
 engineering the needed calls…not sure how far they got.
