Before that.  Sorry, I hadn't seen an announcment of later versions.  :)

It came from Makefile.in (for tux_aqfh).

Hmmm... I'll download the latest versions, and check the configure output more 
carefully to see what is happening.

Not the distro, I compile my own Mesa.  It goes to /usr/local/lib, but it does make 
links in /usr/lib (including for glut I think, but I'll have to check).

Voodoo 2.  Some versions of Mesa break it from time to time.  I had to revert
libGL for some things to work correctly, but GLU and glut seemed OK.  
Apparently, things aren't so good... I'll revert back to 3.4.2 and see if I do better 
with that.
