I had similar problem in xorg-7.5 branch.

Few packages depending on "mesa" directly, I replaced all with
virtual/libgl which is probably provided by all mesa variants (normal, 
-full, -dri, -xlib). 

Then we can use normal preference in all mesa recipes and select right
variant with PREFERRED_PROVIDER in machine config, right?

Can I merge those patches for depends on virtual/libgl?

Whole mesa directory seems quite messy to me.. 4 generations of mesa
recipes with own include files, 4 variants with not so bigg diff. But my
mesa knowledge wrt all oe devices isn't strong enough to encourage me to
cleanup it a bit (I'm glad that mesa-dri-7.6 works good with spitz and
for om-gta02 we use mesa-dri_git with special glamo DRI patches from
Thomas White's branch).
