+<p>
+If you want to use Mesa and native OpenGL in the same application at
+the same time you may find it useful to compile Mesa with
+<i>name mangling</i>.
+This results in all the Mesa functions being prefixed with
+<b>mgl</b> instead of <b>gl</b>.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+To do this, recompile Mesa with the compiler flag -DUSE_MGL_NAMESPACE.
+Add the flag to the other compiler flags in Make-config (if using the
+old-style build system) or in src/Makefile if using GNU autoconf/
+automake to build Mesa.
