Bryce Harrington 42db3137e1 configure: Warn that cairo-gl and cairo-glesv2 are risky
Most distros do not ship with gl-enabled cairo, since doing so can
result in libgl being linked to each cairo-using client, even if they
don't actually use GL, and this can cause much larger per-client memory
footprint, and thus can become a resource issue.

Furthermore, while in theory this should work fine, we don't actively
test this configuration, and there could be random undiscovered bugs if
it's used.  We keep the option available for people interested in
helping us chase down those issues, but warn everyone else away.

Weston

Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a
useful compositor in its own right.  Weston has various backends that
lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as
under X11.  Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple
clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more
complete clients and a simplistic toolkit.  There is also a quite
capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop
shell.  Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server
and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window
manager.

Refer to http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html for building
weston and its dependencies.

The test suite can be invoked via `make check`; see
http://wayland.freedesktop.org/testing.html for additional details.
