<li>New vertex buffer object (vbo) infrastructure

<li>Overlapping glCopyPixels with negative Y zoom didn't work (bug 10521)
<li>Fixed a number of framebuffer/renderbuffer reference counting bugs
<li>Fixed a few bugs in software-emulated alpha planes
<li>Assorted minor bug fixes in glCopy/DrawPixels, glPixelZoom, etc.
<li>Assorted DRI driver bug fixes.

<h2>Internal code changes</h2>
<ul>
<li>Massive changes to the Shading Language compiler.
<li>The _MaintainTnlProgram, _MaintainTexEnvProgram, _TexEnvProgram and
_TnlProgram fields have been moved.
<li>The ctx->Vertex/FragmentProgram._Current fields point to the program
in effect, whether it comes from a shader, user-program or generated
fixed-function program.
<li>Old array_cache module replaced by new vbo module. All geometry
rendering is now cast in the form of vertex buffer objects.
<li>Massive changes to the Shading Language compiler and related state.
<li>Vertex/fragment shaders are compiled into GPU instructions and
programs very similar to GL_ARB_vertex/fragment_program.
<li>Vertex and fragment programs are executed with the same code now.
<li>The SSE-optimized vertex program path has been removed since it didn't
support more than 12 temp registers, didn't support branching/looping, etc.
