Fantastic, I will try this out tonight. Now I know what to google for the results all seem to be of the same opinion. Cheers

I think :num-extensions requires a GL 3.0+ context, so in general you should check that before using it.
The only thing they both have in common it seems is OSX
It seems from here https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/general/macosxlionapidi... this enum was only added in OsX 10.7 (Lion) but at least one of these folks is using mavericks which has 4.2 support (so I'm told :))
On OSX, I think you need to specifically request 3.0+ when creating the context, or it will only give you a 2.x context since it actually separates out the core profile. (On other platforms I think NVidia and AMD drivers will default to the highest version it supports, but enable the backwards compatibility extension or profile or whatever it is)
