 FreeGLUT needs to be ported to Haiku.

 Reasons:
   * Mesa moved libglu out of Mesa, thus having glu and glut outside of the
 Haiku tree is desirable.
   * glu was already ported and converted into a bep:
     * http://ports.haiku-files.org/ticket/647
     * needs gcc2 fixups?
   * The licensing on our glut is questionable.
     * legal action is unlikely, but this should be corrected

 Porting FreeGLUT is less of a port and more of an enhancement to the
 FreeGLUT project.  The Be GL-isms will need to be written for FreeGLUT
