This is a pretty big change in behavior. How much testing has it received? I'm nervous that applications that "work fine" today could misbehave in subtle ways. How much work would it be to add a way to disable the new behavior, perhaps via an environment variable, at run-time? That would make it much easier for users to determine whether this change was responsible for a problem in some game we don't have.

It seems like all the important paths will eventually hit this or dri2GetBuffersWithFormat. Will glFinish always hit this?

As the SBC from the reply from SwapBuffers is not used immediately and can be easily determined by counting the new of SwapBuffers requests made by the client, we can defer the synchronisation point to the pending GetBuffers round trip. (We force the invalidation event in order to require the GetBuffers round trip - we know that all X servers will send the invalidation after SwapBuffers and that invalidation will arrive before the SwapBuffers reply, so no extra roundtrips are forced.) An important side-effect is demonstrated in the next patch where we can detect when the buffers are stale before querying properties.
