Description:
Gtk3 and Qt5 applications don't work in Xephyr.
When i try to launch any Qt5 or Gtk3 GUI application in Xephyr, they don't show and/or crash.
Qt4 and Gtk2 programs run fine and with no errors.
After starting WM in Xephyr(i3 in my case), qt5 and gtk3 apps start to work(and they continue working after killing wm).

Additional info:
* package versions:
Qt5.1.1-5, Gtk3 3.10.2-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. $ Xephyr :1 -screen 800x600
2. $ export DISPLAY=:1
3. $ gtk-demo # GTK2 Works
4. $ gtk3-demo # GTK3 Doesn't work - shows no window
5. $ qhelpconverter-qt4 # Qt4 - shows
6. $ qhelpconverter-qt5 # Qt5 - doesn't work
This task depends upon

$ Xephyr :1 -screen 800x600
$ export DISPLAY=:1
$ glxinfo | grep version
server glx version string: 1.4
client glx version string: 1.4
GLX version: 1.4
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 10.0.1
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30
$ glxgears

So, glxgears works and glxinfo reports openggl 2.1
