Mesa 10.6.3 is here to mainly fix issues with the open-source Nouveau video driver for Nvidia graphics cards, but also to add various patches to the VL module, which affected things like VDPAU, OMX, and VAAPI. Additionally, a memory leak in the XA component has been fixed, and a quite old typo in the OSMesaPixelsStore and OSMesaGetProcAddress functions of the OSMesa API was addressed.
