It didn't affect everyone and those who were affected didn't necessarily see it.

Anyway, the fix has now been released, alas with the removal of GLX 1.4 support that was backported from xserver 1.8.

GLX 1.4 is ca. 10 years old already. Does anyone have any sort of list of applications that require it? I'd guess some proprietary applications.

If you've got one, I'd be very interested; so far, I've only found Clutter versions >= 1.2 that make use of GLX calls newer than 1.2 (and those are appropriately guarded by GLX version checks).
