Just to note, there is a much earlier depth-float format in GL, before the ARB
or NV versions came out:
http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/EXT/wgl_depth_float.txt
It seems its main purpose is increased precision over the non-linear range of
the buffer values. Unfortunately, Wine doesn't implement this extension, as
there is no GLX equivalent.
