Also, I wonder if it isn't just that the XCreateColormap should use the window's visual instead of the one of the OpenGL context chosen via the GLX functions.
I seem to remember that it is actually intentional that they can differ, they just need to be compatible, and you have to use the right one for the right API. But maybe I just imagine this part...
