I clipped out what config.log claimed was the "failed program"
(see below) and was able to compile it and link it in the most
obvious way, without the slightest trouble:

  g++ foo.c -lGL
  echo $?
0
  gcc foo.c -lGL
  echo $?
0

I really don't know what more I can expect my system to make
available to configure.  If I can compile the "failed code"
and it can't ... well I just don't know what to say.

Also FWIW:
