Bug Description
On this system:
OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon HD 5450
OpenGL version string: 4.2.11627 Compatibility Profile Context
OpenGL shading language version string: 4.20
the opengl plugin can't find all the extensions it needs to set GL::shaders==true. However I think based on the above information, it really should be able to support GLSL.

Invalid. I found the problem is the fglrx driver itself. Which is apparently a very old problem with fglrx...
If your binary is named "compiz" then fglrx disables shader support, for apparently no good reason any more.
