Wouldn't this be more obvious already? I'd suspect some existing Nvidia  
user would have reported a bug already about a program not working because  
the current situation completely overwrites the mesa libGL, so it's nearly  
the same situation.

I've been running Nvidia for years and use all sorts of applications. So  
far I  haven't hit this yet, so presumably there are minimal compatibility  
issues.
