After playing around with my xorg setup it seems that my card (which is quite old) does not support DRI, contrary to my recollection. If I turn off DRI and GLX in my xorg.conf file root runs the shape.C demo perfectly well and prints a helpful warning that GL is not available.

Thanks for your help & sorry for the noise.
