(Get the code!)
I see your point. I guess the old behavior is simply because there was no swrast_dri.
As for swrast_dri, it has _direct_ access to the (pure software) OpenGL pipelines, and is thus chosen for direct rendering. The fact that xserver is remote is not taken into consideration. I am not sure which behavior is desired/correct though. Other people should have better answer than me.
The empty visual/fbconfig list you saw might be some other bug. That's why I would like to know the original value of psc->configs. I can run glxgears from a remote machine under "ssh -X" just fine, and it uses swrast_dri. My remote machine runs mesa 7.5.1.
