Instead of just segfaulting in the driver when a buffer allocation fails, report error messages indicating what went wrong so that we can debug things.
As a simple example, chromium wraps Mesa in a sandbox which doesn't allow access to most syscalls, including the ability to create shared memory segments for fences. Before, you'd get a simple segfault in mesa and your 3D acceleration would fail. Now you get:
$ chromium --disable-gpu-blacklist [10618:10643:0930/200525:ERROR:nss_util.cc(856)] After loading Root Certs, loaded==false: NSS error code: -8018 libGL: pci id for fd 12: 8086:0a16, driver i965 libGL: OpenDriver: trying /local-miki/src/mesa/mesa/lib/i965_dri.so libGL: Can't open configuration file /home/keithp/.drirc: Operation not permitted. libGL: Can't open configuration file /home/keithp/.drirc: Operation not permitted. libGL error: DRI3 Fence object allocation failure Operation not permitted [10618:10618:0930/200525:ERROR:command_buffer_proxy_impl.cc(153)] Could not send GpuCommandBufferMsg_Initialize.

[10618:10618:0930/200525:ERROR:webgraphicscontext3d_command_buffer_impl.cc(256)] Failed to initialize command buffer.
This made it pretty easy to diagnose the problem in the referenced bug report.
