Ilya,
I was talking about MESA not MGL, although I had a similar experience to yours 
with MGL. But I really gave up on that one due to the makefiles. If there 
really was a MGL port to DJGPP that used regular make instead of dmake, then 
MGL would have been a wonderful choice since it seems to handle openGL itself. 
I tried to move parts of MGL over into my own projects and just could not get 
it to compile using regular make files. If that is possible and you are really 
porting it to DJGPP in a way that will allow the use of make and still give us 
access to accelleration then that will be a wonderful addition to DJGPP. I'll 
help if I can, just to see openGL, 3dfx and DirectX added to DJGPP.  
John
