Those are not OS X specific. The ARB_texture_storage extension is required for TexStorage3D(), which kitty uses. And OpenGL 3.3 Core Profile is required for the shader language kitty uses. If you remove those tests, you instead get cryptic, hard to debug failures instead.

I think the test program I gave is pretty clear evidence that enabling them does not allow GLEW to detect the extension correctly on a non-OSX system.

See above.

Not everybody uses Intel.

I dont see how it is clear evidence of anything other than that glew < 2 does not work. And OpenGL 3.3 is available with the Nvidia drivers, open source radeon drivers, open source intel drivers. I have no idea about AMD's propritary drivers, but I would be shocked if they did not support OpenGL 3.3 which is more than five years old.

To be precise, OpenGL 3.3 is seven years old: https://www.khronos.org/opengl/wiki/History_of_OpenGL#OpenGL_3.3_.282010.29
