[PD] GEM and chromium

[Alex]

Recently I have been successful getting Gem running over Chromium:
http://chromium.sourceforge.net/

After picking up from where august left of, disabling all of the
non-chromium compatible extensions I could via compile time flags :
  ./configure --with-glversion=1.5 --disable-ARB --disable-NV

I was still having problems with glDeleteFramebuffersEXT and other frame buffer
commands not being defined when I ran via chromium.

I didn't see a compile option that allowed me to disable these frame buffer
commands, so I added this:

#undef GL_EXT_framebuffer_object

to src/Controls/gemframebuffer.cpp

after the includes.

and now gem works via chromium.  Maybe the Gem developers could add [or suggest
one that already exists] a compile time option to disable these commands, so
that others might be able to use chromium with gem as well.

btw, I've sent this info to the GEM list as well but figured it might
be useful for some people on here as well.
