First of all, thanks for taking care of this PR! I think it can be closed. See below.

Is there anything in particular you think would differ between libGL > port and xorg-libraries port? No. Actually it was just an attempt to get 3D hardware acceleration to work correctly, which I had problems with. So I decided to give the libGL port a try. However, that conflicted with xorg-libraries and led to the reported problem. If the "WITH_MODULAR" switch is currently experimental and not expected to work correctly out of the box, then I suggest it should be marked as experimental, so people don't spend hours trying to get it to work. :-) Other than that, I think this PR can be closed. In the meanwhile, Xorg 6.9 has been released, and 3D acceleration now works fine for me with the updated i915 DRI/DRM stuff. Therefore I have no need to play with libGL and WITH_MODULAR anymore.
