Errrr.... I can get GLUT for Mac OS X 5 (GLUT-3.0) to compile without a

ld: table of contents for archive: ./libForeground.a is out of date;
rerun ranlib(1) (can't load from it)

Solution(?): Do as the message says and find libForeground.a (probably in your
GLUT tree somewhere). Run ranlib on it. Make again (without a make clean or a
reconfiguration, otherwise another bad libForeground will be created).

Charles, thanks.  This solution worked for me. (Sorry Chris, I posted in the
ldglite thread before trying this out -- it worked much faster than I thought!)
Perhaps the other error was dependent on the libForeground problem.

Chris, since libForeground.a is in /yourpath/glut, you should only need to issue
"ranlib libForeground.a" before "pbxbuild install," following the build
instructions on the Apple GLUT page.  Apple System Profiler reports
GLUT.framework version 3.2 after you copy the new version over.  (I saved the
official version elsewhere first.)
