I decided to ship a version of libGLw that doesn't depend on Motif to  
satisfy those of you who were negatively affected by the lack of  
libGLw before.

I would actually prefer not to ship it because I don't want to really  
be responsible for it, but it build in Mesa-7.1, and I remembered some  
people complaining about it being gone, so I decided to throw it into  
the rc and see if the fish bit.  ;)

This hasn't been shipped final yet (it's only in this RC).  I'll  
pretty much leave it up to you all here in xquartz-dev... so if anyone  
has a reason to keep it in, speak up... otherwise it gets the boot for  
good.
