+on_cast mesalib check_self

Well, this won't magically fix an already installed version of
xorg-server, would it? Also, digging around in history and memory, I
see that the interesting change in mesalib 9 was the move of libGLU
into the separate glu spell. So this is not really about xorg but about
these:

08:28|dunkelstern:mesalib$ gaze depends glu 1
freeglut depends on glu (required)
v4l-utils depends on glu (required)
wxgtk depends on glu (required)

The way I see it, the upgrade to mesalib > 9.0 indeed requires
check_self on all dependents for the possibility that they need libGLU.
Casting of the broken ones will pull in libGLU if we got the dependency
right. So … we're back at an UP_TRIGGER in mesalib, but with

        check_dependents_versionjump $SPELL $VERSION 9.0

(This function should be of some use after all;-)

Agreed?


Alrighty then,

Thomas
