Seems to be some compiler fault which leads to a wrong flag being used,
making it so wrong number of samples is used for the background.
This should in theory fix issue reported in T47213.
This patch adds a python method to get openGL bind code of material's texture according to the texture slot.
Example:
import bge
cont = bge.logic.getCurrentController()
own = cont.owner
bindId = own.meshes[0].materials[0].getTextureBindcode(0)
Test file: http://www.pasteall.org/blend/40679
This can be used to play with texture in openGL, for example, remove mipmap on the texture or play with all wrapping or filtering options.
And this can be used to learn openGL with Blender.

The issue here was actually somewhere else - the attached scene from the report used a light falloff node in a sunlamp (aka distant light).
However, since distant lamps set the ray length to FLT_MAX and the light falloff node squares this value, it overflows and produces a NaN
weight, which propagates and leads to a NaN intensity, which is then clamped to zero and produces the black pixels.
To fix that issue, the smoothing part of the light falloff is just ignored if the smoothing term isn't finite (which makes sense since
the term should converge to 1 as the distance increases).
The reason for the different results on CPUs and GPUs is not perfectly clear, but probably can be explained with different handling of
Inf/NaN edge cases.
Also, to notice issues like these faster in the future, kernel_asserts were added that evaluate as false as soon as a non-finite intensity is produced.
This way we are always sure that we are using latest ever configuration
without need to manually poke buildbot after doing changes in the building
environment.
Also uncomment code back, was a left-over from some debug.
This was a hard decision, because going newer CUDA toolkit makes
rendering up to 5% slower. But on another hand, it solves major
speed regressions (up to 30%) with branched path tracing on a
top level cards.
Neither of those regressions have a meaningful and sane workaround
from the code itself.
Toolkit 6.5 could still be used, but it's no longer recommended one.
It's not really handy to silence something unused hoping for it'll be
used in the future. We can end up with quite some silencing then.
Also made this flag which i find rather useless to NOT cause -Werror
in Cycles code.
When using multiple portals, scene areas behind one of the portals were rendered darker than they should.
The reason for that is a pretty stupid mistake: Since portals are only used at positions that aren't behind them,
only portals that are used should be accounted for in the PDF calculation. That was actually the case, but the final
divide incorrectly divided by the total amount of portals, not the amount of visible ones.
Another issue with areas behind portals was the PDF evaluation function.
The new evaluation code is shorter, simpler and fixes this issue.
Also, the threshold for the distance check was increased to avoid artifacts where portals touch a surface.
Regression from rB2dba2b3d71d9781bce45. Do not understand why MSVC needs this convoluted
allocation (looks like broken compiler crap?), but at least let's do it correctly!
Now a 'More' item is added to the pie when there are too many items. It opens a sub-pie that contains the remaining items.
Note that this only touches operator-enum pies (like the object mode pie is), it is not a complete support for pies with more than 8 items. For this further design and code work would be needed, but this is too urgent to wait for that.
This is a better fix for T46973, should definitely be applied for 2.77 release.
Patch D1800 by myself with some edits by @campbellbarton, thanks!
While it's not something we'll be using for the official release,
it's nice to support new libraries at least on "it compiles" level,
so it's not that many frustrated developers around.
Nexyon, please have a look into Audaspace changes :)
