 // CHANGELOG
 // (minor and older changes stripped away, please see git history for details)
+//  2023-03-15: OpenGL: Fixed GL loader crash when GL_VERSION returns NULL. (#6154, #4445, #3530)
 //  2023-03-06: OpenGL: Fixed restoration of a potentially deleted OpenGL program, by calling glIsProgram(). (#6220, #6224)
 //  2022-11-09: OpenGL: Reverted use of glBufferSubData(), too many corruptions issues + old issues seemingly can't be reproed with Intel drivers nowadays (revert 2021-12-15 and 2022-05-23 changes).
 //  2022-10-11: Using 'nullptr' instead of 'NULL' as per our switch to C++11.
