Thanks for the pointer.

In the meantime, another kind soul has pointed me to QuakeForge, which
is a version of both Quake and Quake2 under ongoing development.
Turns out it compiles and runs without trouble on my box. Since it
supports GL it also screams along at 50-70 FPS on my GeForce card even
when running in a 1250/1000 window on a 1280/1024 screen. Now all I
have to do is learn how to play it! ;^)
