I downloaded this and made necessary changes to enable building
a statically linked freeglut with Cygwin and MingW32.
 < ./configure --disable-shared >

I will work on the shared library support when I can find some time
but IMHO not having this should not hold up the release
< FWIW - I abhor libtool so ...>

Other then the necesary tweaks to the Demo / Makefile.am's, 
some debugging instrumentation to the Demo / Fractal programs

*** I also *changed* glut.h and configure.in ****
The changes to glut.h should not affect non Win32 users
but this *needs* to be tested with MSVC

Note as is this will *NOT* LINK on anything but Cygwin or MingW
but AFAIK all one should need to do is add the appropriate
files for   GL_LIBS=@@@@XXXXX@@@@ below
I do not have a 'X' based system so I can not test this

If someone on a 'nix' system gets this to work could
they please add my changes into the CVS

The tarball made with 'make dist' is at
http://www.vso.cape.com/~nhv/files/freeglut/freeglut-2.0.0.tar.gz
