   <li>Update to Mesa 11.0.9.
   <li>On arm and armv7, switch to SVC mode when machines with virtualisation extensions boot into a HYP processor mode that has different memory management and register behaviour among other things. This prevents an early crash.

   <ul>
   <li>Remove "expert" mode and the -d flag. Instead make all commands available all the time.
   <li>Change the "P" command: it now shows map data structures.
