I'm not 100% sure to reply to your actual question, but I managed to
display the (bitmap-based) background of my activity behind a
GLSurfaceView by adding a setZOrderOnTop call in the activity onCreate
method:

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
        super.onCreate(icicle);

        ...
        setContentView(R.layout.my_layout);
        mGLSurfaceView =
(GLSurfaceView)findViewById(R.id.theSurfaceViewInMyLayout);
        mGLSurfaceView.setZOrderOnTop(true);
       ...
   }
