In this case, glxgears wasn't being used to compare one GL implementation against another, but instead slightly different versions of the same driver.

Furthermore, if the driver in question did cheat at high speeds, I doubt David would have used glxgears as a test. Under those conditions, using glxgears was probably a simple way to determine the effects of the change.
