It seems that a loader is required for some reason and that
possibly could be one or both of the problems.
You absolutely need a loader to load most opengl functions. They
are not usually exposed in the shared object, as gl function
pointers are tied to a specific opengl context.
You are trying to call function pointer types, which is invalid.
You need to declare some variable with the type, load the
function pointer into the variable (platform specific; there are
plenty of tutorials on how to do this in C), and call that
variable.
(Also I disagree that separating the opengl API based on what the
symbol is is a step up from the "ancient and backwards flat
access" way. Functions are, by neccessity, coupled to the types
and enums they take. A better categorization would be based on
version introduced or extension, iirc jogl does that)
