Aparently I was wrong. Despite what glxinfo says when I force it to use 
the Mesa libGL, it aparently always does software
rendering.

Since I was using a G200, however, I could move the libGL.so symlink to 
libGL.so.1 and rebuild bzflag. The resulting
executable showed a dramatic performance boost over the previous one.

Now the 3dfx card at the office is the only thing left to get going. I 
have a good glide3 library built for it, but now I aparently need to 
build tdfx_dri.so (for /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri). Just how to get that 
built is something I will leave for tomorrow.
