 > and EGL_PLATFORM isn't set.

 > Reorder the specified platforms to use x11, wayland, and drm before
 > surfaceless, as this is the order chosen by other common distributions,

 > Users preferring drm or surfaceless over x11 or wayland likely know how
 > to override the native EGL platform, and likely have x11 and wayland
 > disabled anyway.

 > broken EGL apps when using mesa3d with x11.

 > I discovered the cause of this issue is the ordering of platforms when
 > building mesa3d, making surfaceless the default native platform.

 > I suggested adding a config to specify the default native platform, but
 > after further review, I believe that simply reordering the enabled
 > platforms should be adequate.
