...I think we still need to do this with pix_videoDarwin, too...

...I've made a few updates to code, but unfortunately am running at 
only 28Kbs(stupid phone lines!?!) for the near future, so I'll try to 
get them up ASAP:  they mostly have to do with power of two textures on 
OSX (weren't taking advantage of AGP texturing) and addition of 
texture_range extension (supposedly necessary for fully realizing AGP 
texturing speedup)...

...Also curious about supposed incompatibility of pix_kaleidascope and 
linux builds:  has anyone else tested this?  The code was supposed to 
be very cross-platform, so I'd like to understand what went wrong and 
where...

...In any event, I hope that there won't be quite so long of space 
between this release and the next one...
