...thanx for the code!  As you've found out, the gemwrappers are  
incomplete, but cover a large amount of ground...I'm always finding  
some gl define that needs to be added, and less frequently come  
across unimplemented functions...as you can see, it's kind of trivial  
to add a function:  also, if there are others you need, why not make  
up a list (or add them yourself)?  I haven't had the time to really  
see what's missing or not, but then gl is getting bigger all the time...

...I think chris and I were toying with something around thanksgiving  
here (nov.25th or so)?  But that's as far as that got...I'd like to  
finish the glsl stuff, perhaps get the modular model loading code in  
(did you get very far with that IO?), and also finally get the vertex  
branch stuff in, if only for vertex_tabread/tabwrite...

...of course there's probably more!
