It looks like xc/extras/Mesa contains a stripped down version of the
mesa source code. In particular it lacks all the makefiles. You may be
able to convince the XFree86 build system to build mesa-glu for you with
the right settings in xc/config/cf/host.def. Try appending this to your
host.def:

  #define BuildGLULibrary YES

But why don't you just install the GLU library from your distribution?
It works for me. I'm using Debian Sarge and have xlibmesa3-glu version
4.1.2-12.1 installed.
