Simple test program showing a shader compilation error

The shaders generated seem to be a source of the trouble. The compiler dislikes the following part of the shader:

int bits = ...;
const uint mask = 0xFFFFFFFFu >> (32 - bits);

It complains:
"error: initializer of const variable `mask' must be a constant expression"

Attached is a simple test program to check for this error. Compile and link using "g++ const_init.cpp -lGL -lSDL2 -lGLEW"

You think that's bad? How about the 'offest' typo? :) You need to force GL4 in order to do the trace. Might want to also have a copy of r600g that enables ARB_gpu_shader5 (which will remove the need for those wrong overrides).

Not a mesa bug closing.
