Now that I know that the Nvidia problem is due to Nvidia choosing to
build their driver in a way that doesn't allow shared memory...

"While not a big deal on machines with 2+GB ram on older machines with 1
GB it does represent a bit of an issue." - Bug #725434

It's seeming more reasonable to go ahead and enable cairo-gl and just
recommend that people use Nouveau instead of the proprietary drivers on
machines with less than 2gb ram.  (I say this as I've been using Nouveau
on a machine with 8gb ram.)
