This patch to openscad works around the problem:
https://salsa.debian.org/knielsen-guest/openscad/commit/7225800b534a36e5ad84c56c274889b8d0edc0ce
It uses Xrender to query visuals returned from glXChooseFBConfig(), and
filter out those with alphaMask=0.
With this patch, all openscad tests are passing with mesa 19.3.1-2.
However, I'm unsure if this is the correct approach? It does not seem right
that querying Xrender would be required just to specify GLX_ALPHA_SIZE to
glXChooseFBConfig(). Maybe there is a simpler fix for openscad, or possibly
this is a bug in mesa that should be fixed?
- Kristian.

+Subject: Prefer FBConfig with alpha support for GLX off-screen context
+
+This is to work-around a problem seen with mesa >= 19.3 (Debian
+bug#947196). When GLX_ALPHA_SIZE>0 is passed to glXChooseFBConfig(),
+the first configurations returned result in a BadMatch error in
+glXSwapBuffers(). Picking the first returned configuration with
+alphaMask > 0 (as reported by Xrender) avoids the failure.
