I wasn't sure either.
I guess only the official Haiku libraries should be there, right, not
the ones that are workarounds for binary/backward compatibility issues
which will goes away in
a future release after R1 ?

libglut.so is a new official one under Haiku, while libGLU.so was
already built-in into libGL.so, as we still do.
The issue is do we split them ins three images to avoid aliases except
for backward compatibilty, or do we offer the easiest road for GLUT &
GLU-based apps porters?

I'm for make libglut.so and libGLU.so libraries officially supported
by Haiku directly under these names.
If aliasing libGL.so to accomplish that is considered too hack-ish,
I'll extract from libGL.these two libraries and make them actual ones,
not aliases.

Bye.
  Philippe.
