It means FreeGLUT is installed by OpenGL for win32, Mac OS X comes with GLUT (so you'll need to install FreeGLUT for full functionality).

I'd like to get some more detailed diagnostics to determine why the current code does not work for you before making the change.

However, in these two iterations we may have resolved these specific items.

We can include instructions for the install with POGL. Thanks for being willing to contribute! --Chris
