Thanks for reminding me. I'd neglected to verify that I'm doing that  
correctly. I've written a short script using sed to modify lines 32  
and 33 of gl-render.h. They result is below ...

	 32 #include <OpenGL/gl.h>
	 33 #include <OpenGL/glu.h>

When you finish the configure process on your mac, what does the line  
beginning with "OPENGL libraries:" list?
