Ah, I think I might know why I did that - it's left over from the
earlier patch for 5.11, which needed to do the same for libGL.

GetProcAddressGL() needed to use similar functionality to find libGL
features at runtime, because there are GL extensions that aren't in
every implementation; but yquake2 now uses SDL_GL_GetProcAddress() for
that, so it doesn't need to do the dlsym() itself. So the
Sys_GetProcAddress() patch band can probably be removed.
