  There is clearly a fault of logic when handling 
 the double buffering in glXChooseVisual for version
 of Mesa below 3.0. It is now corrected in Mesa-3.2
 (I did not work with the 3.1 that had other problems).

  If working with Mesa-3.0, a workaround (ok with
 my apps) is to do once the glXChooseVisuals for the whole app 
 and doing first the glXChooseVisual for double buffer
 and after a glXChooseVisual for single buffering.
