Wanted to get back to this. We're now using GLushort to store vertex
indices for objects that are generated on demand (sphere's,
cylinders). This is for OpenGL ES 1, where GLuint is not available.

I would like to only use GLushort when its actually necessary. Would
testing for GLuint availability work from CMake, just like it does for
types that depend on the compiler (e.g., unsigned long long), not on
the opengl version/headers we'll build against. A google didn't turn
anything up for me..


Best and thanks for any tips,
Dee
