Your problem is the consequence of the libGL-devel package (Mesa GL) taking=
=20
over /usr/include/GL in 2008.
=20
If you want native GL, you need to install the opengl package, and compile =
with
-I/usr/include/opengl , as stated in /usr/share/doc/opengl-1.1.0/README.txt=
 .

Please send any question or comment about the opengl package to cygwin at c=
ygwin dot com,
not to directly to me.=20=09=09=20=09=20=20=20=09=09=20=20
