   My guess is that if it hasn't been fixed by now it will not be fixed as   
   there are only few people still interested in those old cards.

   On systems where hardware accelerated GLX are unreliable I usually set   
   the environment variable  LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT to 1.   
      
   Example bash:   
      
   export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1   
      
   Or tcsh:   
      
   setenv LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT 1   
      
   The above can be set in some login script or in the terminal before   
   starting an opengl application. It will result in slower but hopefully   
   more stable software openGL rendering.   
      
   regards Henrik
