Aehm, do we have a port or another something well-know source for
FreeBSD glide libraries?

Last time I checked, you had to assemble them from patches floating
around, support for Voodoo1 wasn't there at all.  I'm happy to build
and commit a port, but when I asked for the latest patches on
-multimedia, I hit silence.

Mesa uses Glide and therefore doesn't access /dev/3dfx directly.
