oops, your original mesage read

Has anybody succeeded in compiling Mesa from the CVS repository
under Cygwin B20.1? I've managed to build the GL/GLU libs, but
the compilation of GLUT yields tons of macro redefinition errors.

I must have been really tired. Of course if you are compiling glut
agains mesa that would be different than compiling it against the NT GL
libraries. Sorry about that.
What I described is how to build glut when using the NT GL libraries.
Apparently(?) the mesa header files are different than the header files
I used. I remember that, now, and I guess that's where you're having
trouble.
nope, can't help. sorry.

downloaded latest glut tarball. Changed WIN32 to _WIN32, made a simple
makefile, used the msvc gl header files, and built glut. I later linked
with the lib{opengl,glu}32.a files that come with cygwin-1.0, and they
use the NT dlls.
You are asking for help making glut work with mesa. That's not the
question I answered.

that's cool! I havn't used 1.2 features in apps I run under windows.
Good point.

thanks for the info.
