shows that your sample program will work when just OSMesa is linked.  For the
Octave sample we've been using:

[launch octave]

graphics_toolkit ('qt')
figure visible off
sombrero
print invisible.pdf


isn't it the case that the only OpenGL context created will be

OSMesaCreateContext()
OSMesaMakeCurrent()

?  Of course, if the user were to make this visible it would crash...or wait,
would it even link?  Well, for octave-os, one could switch around -lOSMesa
-lGL (as done in a previous comment).  The point is, the user will never use
octave-os...it would be only for creating the documentation and nothing else.
