Mir server crashes with "std::exception::what: Failed to get front buffer object" when trying to fullscreen/bypass a surface in multimonitor clone mode.

ERROR: /home/dan/bzr/mir/fullscreen/src/platform/fatal/fatal.cpp(55): Throw in function void mir::fatal_error_except(const char*, ...)

std::exception::what: Failed to get front buffer object

Mesa only has a fixed limit of (four?) front framebuffer objects available. So somehow the combination of fullscreen bypass and multimonitor is making us ask for more than that... (?)
