Sorry for the delay, I've been away for a while on vacation.
I think there's some confusion here about 0.9.5c. And I think I see
the same confusion here.

The new ldglite 0.9.5c executable is just a quick hack to fix the two
easiest to solve problems with the OS X version (the bad mouse spinning
and the bleeding edge lines). The other problems with the keyboard are
fixed by replacing the GLUT shared library used by ldglite with an
updated version. This new GLUT library goes somewhere with the other
goodies provided by the operating system and replaces the crummy version
that comes with OS X. Whatever version of ldglite you run should
automatically use the new GLUT library and all it's bug fixes. You
don't need another new ldglite executable.
Now having said this, it's clear that we could use some instructions
that walk through installing the fixed GLUT library because I've got a
feeling it's probably not going to come in any future official updates
of OS X. Maybe Jim could whip some up since he's actually done it, and
then this could be incorporated into the documentation at ldraw.org.
