--- Comment #8 from Uli Schlachter <psychon at znc.in> ---
I learnt about libepox[0] today and asked its author:

<psychon> anholt: hey, would it make sense for cairo to use libepoxy? I thought
about it because of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47480
<psychon> anholt: nvidia's libGL dirties lots(?) of memory when it is loaded
(at least on x86? I'm not sure), which is why I ask
<anholt> psychon: yeah, it would make a lot of sense, and cairo was one of the
major targets I was thinking of when I was building it.  still need to sort out
win32, though.

Disclaimer: I have zero clue about GL and I am not involved in cairo-gl. Just
wanted to mention this library and perhaps someone shows up and decides to
experiment with it.
