After searching the web a lot I found some information [1] that this gl
is a library contained as an example in Mesa. I have deleted mesa build
directory to make clean compilation. It occur that mesa has difficulties
to compile. I was desperate to compile this ASAP, thus I tried different
versions of Mesa. Some newer versions complained about missing 'talloc'
package which  I couldn't find, and some had some syntax errors. Finally
I have downgraded Mesa to 7.6. This version worked fine with 2011-03-31
BR snapshot and let me compile whole system.
	I hope that one day, this will save someone some time of searching for
solution...
