Ahah, I needed to have libglide3 installed, instead of libglide2.
It seems the libglide2 description explicitly mentinos the Banshee:
Description: Graphics library for 3Dfx Voodoo based cards
This package allows you to use the 3D functions of cards based on
3dfx Interactive, Inc's Voodoo 2, Voodoo Banshee, and Voodoo 3
chipsets. You should install it if you have such a card.
Goody, I get to file my first bug report!
Thanks very much to all who helped me sort this out, especially
Burkhard.
