Yes.

Yes. Falcon BMS is D3D7 from Falcon 4.0 ported to D3D9. Falcon has a 
complex history. Corporate acquisitions, code leaks, etc.

If you want, can give you required files and instructions for 
installing. Always willing to shift the work on someone else ;-)

Especially since the amount of triangles drawn by me using GL/D3D is nada.

There's a log attached in the. Some Lisp-syntax LLVM GLSL decompiler 
output, BMS tries to set properties, tons of them, using separate temps 
for each, in result using over 128 temps. LLVM fails to optimize due to 
indirect addressing. Context is missing 'cause it was talked about on 
freenode/#radeon.

As for the rest (temps, indirect addressing), don't know, not a GL 
programmer, sorry.

As for the patch getting in, please see:

I can't really back this up, I'm no GL programmer! But see also the 
original bug report:

Unless Ben replies (you might also want to contact him, he's an  X-Plane 
developer), chances of getting this in are bleak. But what about a 
registry option of disabling it? Or environment variable? Or whatever? 
Maintaining local changes is always hard for my cynical self ;-)
