Comment:
I tried the generic unix tarball on Mac OS X and noted that there is an
error in the autoconf script.
The autoconf script checks whether {{{$target_os}}} is {{{darwin*}}} or
win32, without requesting {{{AC_CANONICAL_TARGET}}}.
As a result, {{{$target_os}}} is empty and {{{OSX=yes}}} resp.
{{{WIN32=yes}}} is never set.
Because of this, the OpenGL test fails on my system.
I'm not an autoconf expert, but it works if you insert the following lines
at line 2 of config.in
{{{
AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([scripts])
AC_CANONICAL_TARGET
}}}
and copy {{{config.sub}}} and {{{config.guess}}} into the scripts/
directory.
If attached a patch to fix this problem, but it should be reviewed by
someone comfortable with autotools.
