This only affects 12.04 (precise). We currently have the following blacklist string regarding unredirection on 12.04: (nouveau|Intel).*Mesa (8.0|9.0). The '9.0' was added because an user had x-updates PPA enabled only, not the rest of the 12.04.2 (LTS-Q) stack, and on that unredirection of fullscreen windows didn't work.

We now have Mesa 9.0 point releases in precise, so the strings would differ now even from x-updates PPA. As an example:

up-to-date 12.04.2:
OpenGL vendor string: Intel Open Source Technology Center
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 9.0.3
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20

original 12.04 stack + x-updates:
OpenGL vendor string: Intel Open Source Technology Center
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 9.0
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20

It'd be wanted that Mesa 9.0.x would not be blacklisted anymore on Intel and Nouveau, but original 9.0 could remain blacklisted.
