for those who can't wait to login into the PTR, here is a little patch
that disables opengl support in ddraw, so ddraw won't call
glXMakeCurrent(). It's a really ugly solution, but at least now we can
try to login into the PTR.

The better solution would be to save the old drawable and context and
reactivate it after ddraw initilizes opengl. Or whatever the ddraw
author comes up with :-)
