Where are those __init___.so files coming from I wonder? Possibly an
old 2.0.0 installation? 2.0.1 should not have any __init___.so files,
as they were renamed to GL__init___.so, GLU__init___.so and
GLUT__init___.so . I'd suggest nuking your sourcedirectory/build and
installationdirectory/OpenGL directories and then re-building/re-installing.

Um, well, you'd have to do the same for GLU and GLUT as you did for GL.
That's *not* recommended, as the new module naming is required to make
certain packaging systems work properly, and will not be reversed any
time soon.
Good luck,
