Summary: Use FreeGLUT on Windows
Initial Comment:
Currently (as of 3.0.1), platform/win32.py looks for glut32.dll, freeglut32.dll and freeglut.dll in that order, thus preferring GLUT over FreeGLUT. Also, the Windows binary package includes an "original" GLUT DLL.
As FreeGLUT offers more features, and pre-compiled FreeGLUT DLLs are available for Windows (32-bit and 64-bit), I'd like to suggest that freeglut come before the original in the search order, and that the binary package should include the FreeGLUT DLL.
