Yes.  I've applied slightly more nuanced version of that (which tries
to create the context, but on failure doesn't exit) and uploaded a
new debian package to unstable.  This obviously isn't a perfect fix,
but it beats loch being unusable, and if it was working for anyone
before it should still with off-screen rendering.

I've attached the patch I applied.

Cheers,
