I am not sure whether or not this problem has been reported already but
there appears to be a slight error in pfTexFilter()'s documention.

The man page prototype for pfTexFilter() in Performer 2.0 and 2.1 is
    void pfTexFilter(pfTexture *tex, int filt, int type);
      where "type may be one of PFTEX_MINFILTER, PFTEX_MAGFILTER,
             PFTEX_MAGFILTER_ALPHA, or PFTEX_MAGFILTER_COLOR"
      and "filter is a combination of bitmask tokens which specify a
             particular minification or magnification filter"
It SHOULD be
    void pfTexFilter(pfTexture *tex, int type, int filt);
              (Second and third arguments have been switched)

Using the man page verson will cause warnings to be issued which go away if
you assume the revised version. Source listings in /usr/share/Performer
(such as the Flt_V11 and DWB loaders) match the revised version, NOT the
man page version.
