The issue was caused by the render engine loading edit mesh, which re-allocates
mesh array which might be referenced by other object's derived meshed.
Worst thing about this is that updating render engine happens from the end of
scene update function, after all the objects are updated and so. This is needed
so render engine gets the update objects which is correct.
The only proper way to solve the issue is to make it so viewport engine does not
leave objects in inconsistent state, meaning nobody will reference to freed data.
In order to reach this we do edit mesh loading before running objects update so
all the objects which uses that mesh will have proper references in the derived
mesh.
This also solves old creepyness which happened before when having single object
in edit mode. tweaking it will calculate derived mesh as a part of scene update,
then this derived mesh will be freed by edit mesh loading and viewport will be
creating derived mesh again.
Now render engine is expected to do nothing with meshes which are in edit mode,
but they still need to load edit data for non0meshes. It's not really easy to
do from the BKE level because needed functions are implemented in the editor.
Thanks Campbell for the review!

This patch creates an interface for selection mechanisms in opengl. This
makes it possible to switch between occlusion query based or select
rendermode based selection transparently.
This is really useful on graphics drivers that do not accelerate the
select rendermode path (some ATI cards are notorious for this, and the
new path is used by default there), since occlusion queries are always
hardware accelerated due to their use in games.
The option can be found under system - selection. Auto just enables
occlusion queries for ATI users while the rest of the options enforce
one of the two methods always.
There is just one known change, previous code enforced nearest bone to
always get selected, even when mouse selecting near the same position, I
couldn't replicate the behaviour though.
patch by me with edits and review by Campbell.
Thanks!
Yep, at last it's here!
There are a few minor issues remaining but development can go on in
master after discussion at blender institute.

Thanks to Sergey and Campbell for the extensive review and to the
countless artists that have given their input and reported issues during
development.
- allow zooming when in ortho+user mode
- fix for using VIEW3D_OT_ndof_orbit_zoom when the camera is locked.
- fix for locked camera changing the dist value when used with ndof.
- de-duplicate ndof_pan_zoom and ndof_all operators
After some discussion it seems both are valid defaults but useful for
very different purposes.
- 'free' lets you explore the scene with full 6dof (like fly mode)
- 'orbit' is closer to typical mouse view orbit, constraining to orbiting about a central location.
This doesn't effect orbit/pan which are available with modifier keys.
Issue is caused by start point of ray used to detect faces under the mouse is set rather far away in ortho 3dviews.
The loss of precision on the ray location induced by this can lead to face snapping failures.
Solution is to do the raycasting with a temp start point, much closer to the object we check, and add back
to the found distance the diff to the real start point once detection is done (as we need all hit distances
from all tested objects to be relative to a common point!).
Note this commit only addresses the "face snapping on mesh" case, other kind of snapping do not seem to suffer
from this issue.

to quickly toggle it on/off.
Problem is accessing freed data, now the job is ended immediately. Fix based
on patch from Sergey and investigation from Bastien.
of editmode on the child object.
Problem was that the object custom data mask was not taken into account when
rebuilding the derivedmesh in some cases, which is needed for the derivedmesh
to contain the mapping back to the original vertices. Now this data mask is
used for any derivedmesh build that will be cached.
Also problematic was that the datamask for the active object was applied to
all objects in the scene, which caused the parent object to be recalculated
when it didn't need to be. Now this datamask is only used for the active object.
render of objects could slow things down when redrawing the view each time a new
sample is displayed.
Now it does a partial redraw of the viewport with only the render border area,
skipping OpenGL object drawing while the render is refining.
Doing linearization with GLSL was already faster, but even faster is to just read the
bytes instead of floats and convert those to linear, since byte => float is just a quick
256 entry table lookup. Also made it assign the bytes directly to the image buffer so
they do not need to be converted back from float to byte for file saving, and made sky
render write the background color with OpenGL instead of doing it on the CPU.
alpha, added option when drawing depth to disable alpha clip override.
We use that in texture paint cursor now. Not too common but may be
useful for people dealing with cloning plugins.
Reported by kgeogeo on irc, thanks.
brushes, due to issues with color coded drawing or slow/buggy reading from such
a buffer on some systems.
In case multisample is enabled now, it uses an offscreen buffer for such drawing,
which is not multisampled and so should not cause issues. This does mean there is
some extra GPU memory usage when multisample is enabled, and we could optimize
triple buffer to work together here somehow to share buffers, but it's better than
having selection not working.
without hurting quick texture painting
- ED_view3d_draw_offscreen will now output buffer with
transparent alpha, if sky needed it should be alpha-undered
later.
- ED_view3d_draw_offscreen_imbuf now accepts alpha mode as an
argument which could be either R_ADDSKY or R_PREMULALPHA
- OpenGL render and sequencer's opengl preview will now reflect
scene's Alpha Mode
- Quick Edit will use OpenGL with transparent alpha mode
- Drop group into 3d window now puts itself at mouse cursor location.
- Drop objects into 3d window now doesn't move the 3d cursor anymore.
Added new function ED_view3d_cursor3d_position() to handle this,
so the temporarily object-drop operator macro also could go away.
(Which was setting 3d cursor)
caused by not projecting points behind the perspective view,
even though this worked in 2.64 the values were flipped (rotating direction was reversed and the center point was flipped).
added V3D_PROJ_TEST_CLIP_NEAR, when omitted ED_view3d_project_*** will project points from behind a perspective view plane.
