Odd. Apparently you have more instructions than I have overall so you
either have more shaders in your shader-db or some of them are not being
compiled for me for some reason.

Hah, some people (including yourself earlier this week IIRC) have asked
me in the past whether some patch passes piglit after I sent it to the
mailing list, so I can only assume it's not redundant information. You
also seemed to get angry recently because some commit I sent was missing
(from my point of view) redundant information you considered critical,
so don't be surprised to see all kinds of useless data in my commit
messages from now on.
