I don't know much about OpenGL, but GL_EXT_framebuffer_object might help as 
far as I understand? To quote the official spec:  
"This extension defines a simple interface for drawing to rendering 
destinations other than the buffers provided to the GL by the window-system." 
 
It's quite new, part of OpenGL 1.5 or even 2.0, but it's at least supported by 
recent Nvidia drivers (checked 1.0.7676) - don't know about ATI. It's not 
exactly the most compatible solution, as it's only supported on more recent 
GPUs (Geforce 5 and later) if I remember correctly. But maybe still worth 
looking into, if it's suited to fix the problem. The regression mostly hits 
more expensive applications where it's save to assume the user has the 
hardware needed anyway. And I think it's faster compared to other hacks...
