Interesting,
seems like I have been fooled by Qt:

OpenGL support ......... yes (Desktop OpenGL)
EGL support ............ yes <EGL/egl.h>

For me this sounded as if it was configured right, so "EGL support" is
a bit misleading..

TBH it wasn't properly tested yet.
On my Overo every time I start any EGL application all I get is just
EGL_BAD_ALLOC 0x3003 ...
There was a thread about this on the meta-ti mailing list [1], but it
seems to be low priority.
Also with your patch [2] nothing seems to change for me.
