Public bug reported:
Related to this bug (bug #1480755) - this is the issue preventing
unity8/mir working in VMware.
Bringing it out into its own issue to improve visibility.
Choice quotes from previous bug:
The problem is (annoyingly) that Mesa 10.5.9 on wily (Intel Haswell)
returns 7 compatible EGLConfigs for EGL_ALPHA_SIZE=0 but all of them
have EGL_ALPHA_SIZE == 8 set.
Added a Mesa task. RAOF has suggested we should just fix Mesa. When
asking for RGBA of 8880 it should provide at least one EGLConfig that is
8880 instead of always 8888.
This should be possible. It's not entirely clear why we're not getting
XRGB visuals currently, but it's fixable.
