That's not good, sounds like a bug in GTK+3 - it shouldn't be initialising
the GL code.

The only bit of source that includes epoxy is gtkglarea.c.  libepoxy only
looks up libGL.so.1 when it's invoked.

What's the exact message you get, and bonus points if you can attach a gdb
with debug symbols to get a backtrace.  Maybe something like Glade is
instantiating every class?
