I'm not able to duplicate that with my amd64 -current test laptop. It
runs random OpenGL screensaver choices generally without issue. (There
are times when an individual one will cause a core dump, but that
doesn't bring anything down.) The distinction may be that mine has older
Intel graphics than yours (HD4000).
