Summary: GLX header definition

Initial Comment:
In the header glx.h, all functions declarations are not encapsulated into the 
consistent definitions (e.g. "#ifndef GLX_VERSION_1_x"). All defines are set at 
the beginning of the header file ("#define GLX_VERSION_1_1                1", 
etc)

This makes it difficult to mix environments, e.g. using glew in an application 
depending on a library using glx.h

problems occurs when functions definitions use system types instead of GL 
types, e.g. "long unsigned int" instead of "GLuint"

and compiling returns:
/usr/include/GL/glx.h:202: error: declaration of C function 'void 
glXCopyContext(Display*, __GLXcontextRec*, __GLXcontextRec*, long unsigned 
int)' conflicts with
/usr/include/GL/glxew.h:118: error: previous declaration 'void 
glXCopyContext(Display*, __GLXcontextRec*, __GLXcontextRec*, GLuint)' here

2 solutions to solve this:
1. Correctly encapsulate all the function/value declarations in the consistent 
definitions (like glew does)
#ifndef GLX_VERSION_1_x
#define GLX_VERSION_1_x

...

#endif

2. Correct the functions declarations, using the consistent GL types (e.g. 
GLuint)
