Brecht, AMDGPU is an opensource driver implementation from AMD. It is NOT directly used by system and/or applications, instead it is hooked up to Mesa via LLVMPipe. So as far as applications are concerned, their OpenGL provider is Mesa.
The issue here is that driver developers doesn't seem to be into implementing all OpenGL features within compatibility profile. Core profile on AMDGPU goes up to 4.5 if i'm remembering things correctly.
