AhA!

So, the problem is nothing to do with GLUT - it's because the relevent
X libraries are not being linked in during the configure tests for GLUT.

See!  It didn't link in -lX11 -lXi -lXext -lXmu ...no wonder the test for
GLUT failed!

At this point, I think we have to punt this problem back at Jasmin et al.
I think there is something wrong with the auto-detection of the X libraries
in configure.in...but that only explains an incorrect missing dependancy report.

There is still something wrong with your X windows installation.

I suggest you check for libX11.so , libXi.so, libXext.so and libXmu.so in
/usr/X11R6/lib - and other likely places.
