Thanks a lot! I have not found any improvement by enabling llvmpipe
when building mesa. Have to dig a little deeper before knowing more.
Switching from glx to swx11 doubled the speed of glxgears. Will also try
with the Hurd server and Linux client (in due time).

I don't think a freeze exception is needed right now. Will do that if
requested by somebody else later on.

Thanks!
