No, he doesn't like having this info visible outside the backend. You can 
certainly introduce new per-compiled-gl shader information, but it should not 
be 'visible' outside the respective shader backend. So in an ideal world your 
patchset would not touch wined3d_private.h, only glsl_shader.c, and later 
arb_program_shader.c, since all the NP2 fixup interfaces the backend needs 
are already in place.

In the past we've done a considerable amount of work to separate the shader 
backend implementations from the rest of the code. E.g. the ps_compile_args 
structure is part of that(avoids direct stateblock accesses), Henri moved 
parsing the D3D bytecode into the frontend(the backends operate on 
bytecode-independent structures), etc. The goals are an abstraction from the 
bytecode to enable d3d10 support, the stateblock separation allowed shader 
duplication, etc. However, the work is not entirely done yet,

I can implement the modification of ps_compiled_shader so you can add your 
data structures properly. An example of what it should more or less look like 
is the fragment pipeline replacement - e.g. the ATIFS specific structures are 
all defined in ati_fragment_shader.c, and all the frontend offers is a void * 
to store a pointer in the device. The question is obviously when I'll get to 
it, as I still have to play around with that java-jboss-whatever stuff for 
university.
