Overview

    This extension provides a way to skip rows of pixels when reading
    or copying pixel rectangles.  This extension is complementary to
    the EXT_interlace extension except that it has no affect on getting
    texture images.

Additions to Chapter 4 of the 1.2 Specification (Per-Fragment Operations and the Frame Buffer)

    [In section 4.3.2 "Reading Pixels" the specification of an interlace
    read operation is added to the GL Specification in the sectino on
    "Obtaining Pixels from the FrameBuffer."]

    Reading interlaced rows of pixels is enabled or disabled with Enable
    or Disable using the symbolic constant INTERLACE_READ_INGR.  If
    INTERLACE_READ_INGR is disabled, then ReadPixels obtains values from
    the selected buffer from each pixel with lower left hand corner at
    (x+i, y+j) for 0 <= i < width and 0 <= j < height; this pixel is said
    to be the ith pixel in the jth row.

    If INTERLACE_READ_INGR is enabled, then ReadPixels obtains values
    from the selected buffer from each pixel with lower left hand corner
    at (x+i, y+(j*2)) for 0 <= i < width and 0 <= j < height; this pixel
    is said to be the ith pixel in the jth row.

    If any of these pixels lies outside of the window...
