If I correctly understood the meaning of that file, one could correctly compile if linking 
with GL libraries other than Apple ones and then run using Apple X11 server. The first 
step was successfull, but the second wasn't in my case.
Do I need to install another X11 server (for instance macports one) in order to make it work?
