Hi Thomas.
I haven't heard back from upstream on both pending points for libepoxy 
(clean solution for epoxy with mesa without x11) nor forcing EGL.
IMO EGL isn't a hard requirement for X11 (GLX), i can rework the old 
patch for the new libepoxy and send another pull request to see what's 
up, though i was hoping upstream to clarify before being too annoying 
with pulls.
Regards.
