I hope that this assertion from the GLUT documentation will be sill true: "Because a very large window system software vendor (who will remain nameless) has an apparent inability to appreciate that OpenGL's API is independent of their window system API, portable ANSI C GLUT programs should not directly include <GL/gl.h> or <GL/glu.h>. Instead, ANSI C GLUT programs should rely on <GL/glut.h> to include the necessary OpenGL and GLU related header files."
