FWIW, I now figured out what exactly is wrong with that window. The
window is created by a different process, and get_win_data() in
winex11.drv/windows.c obviously can't find the window data which was set
in another process to its own display. The attached patch works that
around and SetPixelFormat() succeeds after that. This looks like
something to be done in winex11.drv (but I realize that the rendering to
other process windows might require much more than this). Yet I suppose
it still worth handling the failures in gl context creation in
wined3d_context_gl_init() as we discussed before.
