Description mchampig 2000-07-19 12:59:50 UTC 
The 3D screensavers fail every time, dumping core. I haven't
looked into why but probably floating point failures. It seems every
screensaver that uses Mesa has this problem.

*All* of them?  Crap. Last I checked it was only about half of them. :(

(FWIW, the same sorts of problems happen on ia64; probably a general
64-bit issue.)
