At the risk of repeating myself...

  glut.h, gl.h, glext.h, glu.h ...and all their little friends
  belong in one place - and one place only:

     /usr/include/GL

...if you see them anywhere else - remove them.

If you don't do that then some programs (which happen to be tolerant)
will find them - and others (which happen to be pedantic) will not.

Similarly with the library files - which should be in /usr/lib/ and
nowhere else.
