libegl and libgles aren't built nowadays, so the problem is avoided. Noone has dared to touch this subject the past 2.5 years: http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded/commit/recipes/mesa?id=3d96f8cb61225d515b5cb4fe863f0d50c3ced436

The best solution[1] is to disable egl/gles in the mesa-recipes and add a seperate recipe for them. That way you still get glu and other useful mesa bits needed for gnome/efl/xfce/etc, but you can skip the sysroot/shlib poisoning if needed.

[1] The best solution if of course getting sgx support into mesa, but nothing is happening on that front apart from some posturing on the fsf side, no actual code.
