Does FreeBSD support OpenGL 3.3?

[Eax Melanhovich]

Here is an output I got:

$ glxinfo | grep OpenGL
OpenGL vendor string: Intel Open Source Technology Center
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Ivybridge Mobile 
OpenGL core profile version string: 3.2 (Core Profile) Mesa 11.0.8
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 1.50
OpenGL core profile context flags: (none)
OpenGL core profile profile mask: core profile
OpenGL core profile extensions:
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 11.0.8
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30
OpenGL context flags: (none)
OpenGL extensions:
OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.0 Mesa 11.0.8
OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES
3.00 OpenGL ES profile extensions:

So for now only OpenGL 3.2 is provided. How can I figure out if it's
some sort of bug / wrong configuration or the best I can get on this
hardware?
