Thanks to everyone for the clarification!  When I read 'MesaLib', then went to
'MesaGLUT' and from there to 'Freeglut' I'd gotten myself confused and thought
that Freeglut was an alternative to MesaLib!

Now that's cleared up, I'll gladly leave Freeglut out until I find something
that does need it.
