libMesaGL is obsolete, you should link programs to libGL instead
because some PCs now have OpenGL drivers for the 3D cards and the only
way for a program to find them is if you link to libGL. Symlinks should
work too, that's not the best solution but if you decide to make them
don't forget to run ldconfig after.
If that still doesn't work, give me a better description of your
problem and I'll be able to help you.

Glut is not going to be updated anymore, and it's not LGPL either. The
latest version of Mesa (3.2) comes with a makefile for GLUT so I think
you only need to unpack the source there and it should compile (haven't
tested it myself).
