That certainly helped - it's now picking up some of the X11 libraries and some
of the OpenGL libraries, however i have a copy of both of these also sitting in
/usr/include anyway, so the reason it wasnt finding these initially is beyond
me.
However, perhaps it's just me, but i still dont believe configure is doing
things correctly. Whilst building with the above flags, it's still posting
messages like "checking for glXMakeCurrent in -lGL... no". It's been a while
since i last compiled GL apps for windows, so i may be wrong, but should that
not be -lopengl32?
A quick look through the configure script gives me "case $uname in
CYGWIN* | MINGW*)", which seems to suggest that it does have a mingw
option, but for some silly reason it doesnt seem to want to pick it up and try
to compile with it.
