Make sure the -L thingy is pointing to /usr/lib/X11/lib (or whatever the path
is to the x libs) right before it tries to include the glu stuff. i've had
similar problems in the past and that seemed to fix it. For some reason the
glu and glx libs are in the x lib path and not in /usr/lib where i think they
should be (though i'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable and sane reason why
it is the way it is :))
