So, it was certainly a GLUT version problem.

So, you have glut 3.7 installed in /usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.so and the new
header file in /usr/include/GL/glut.h ?

Then all you need to do is this: (You need to be 'root')

  cd /usr/lib
  rm libglut*
  ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.so libglut.so

Remake PLIB, (don't forget to 'make install')...ditto for Tux_AQFH and
you are ready to roll.

...tadaaaa!
