Issue here is that remote connection will use OpenGL 1.1.
There was a call here that would free VBOs always without a check,
however the VBO free function pointer is NULL on such contexts causing a
crash.
This must have been causing some of the crashes with old contexts. While
I think supporting those systems is not such a good idea in general,
they can have a few more moments of support I guess.
Things might be better now for systems using OGL 1.1 though there are
still things that could be done better here - for instance going to
dyntopo can crash immediately because we don't have a fallback
implementation there. It might be worth reimplementing sculpting with
vertex arrays for the legacy case too, but I guess if we move on to
OpenGL 2.1 soon this is a bit of a wasted effort.
