The rationale here is, that this line would create an instance of gl_renderer_interface in every compilation unit that included gl-renderer.h. This is not necessary, and it can actually be harmful by masking the real exported gl_renderer_interface symbol, if you added another compilation unit to gl-renderer.so, causing a runtime failure in loading it. gl-renderer.c already creates the exported symbol.
Weston Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a useful compositor in its own right. Weston has various backends that lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as under X11. Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more complete clients and a simplistic toolkit. There is also a quite capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop shell. Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window manager. Refer to http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html for building weston and its dependencies. The test suite can be invoked via `make check`; see http://wayland.freedesktop.org/testing.html for additional details.
