As MTJ pointed out, we do support the display lists on pfGeoSets
in Performer 2.0+ with the PFGS_COMPILE_GL draw mode and these display
lists have no mode settings in them and _are_ be cached in the iR display
list cache and this happens independently of the use of priorities.

Performer 2.2 will add:
1) compile pfGeoSet display lists separately from drawing them
2) get back the gl display list ID to set priorities directly through OpenGL.
3) allow the setting of the display list priorities on pfGeoSets.
