Given the complexity of the mesa package definition including the numerous matches on %current-system, I'm not confident or comfortable in my ability to rewrite mesa's package-arguments to use gexps. I certainly don't want to delay fixing the Vulkan layer library paths on core-updates packages even longer than it already has been trying to rewrite a complex core package.
