What do you mean OpenGL library support is still in alpha 
quality? There's several high quality ports of the OpenGL headers 
and they work like a charm. I've had no problems.

Using the GC is fine as long as you aren't allocating every 
frame. I use GC allocation for all my big systems and anything 
that isn't created or destroyed during gameplay. It's very 
convenient for that kind of thing and you can just let the GC run 
at the end of a level or something.
