The problem is that we will be calling a callback with a lock held. We are doing the same in mesa/display.cpp though, so we might as well make the two backends equally susceptible to deadlock. Of course we could try to fix them both somehow, but I don't see any reasonable solution other than creating copies of the DisplayBuffers, which has its own set of problems.
