Follow-up Comment #112, bug #44478 (project octave):

Summarizing: Either Nvidia and OSmesa will never be able to work together, or
devising a workaround is going to require months of programmer time.

I think the best course now is to search for a way to detect the library clash
and avoid it by disabling offscreen rendering with osmesa at runtime.  During
a documentation build, that might mean flashing the figures on the
screen--certainly annoying, but not fatal.
