SGI's opengl and cygnus

[Garner Chung <garnerbc at uclink2 dot berkeley dot edu>]

I've been trying to compile some basic opengl programs using SGI's opengl
implementation.  I started out by creating .a files from the opengl.dll and
the glu.dll(not the opengl32.dll and the glu32.dll which are Microsoft's).

impdef opengl.dll > opengl.def
dlltool -k --def opengl.def --dllname opengl.dll --output-lib libopengl.a

But then I ran into a problem:
simpleci.o(.text+0xc33):simpleci.c: undefined reference to
`wglCreateContext@4'
simpleci.o(.text+0xc4b):simpleci.c: undefined reference to `wglMakeCurrent@8'
simpleci.o(.text+0xc7e):simpleci.c: undefined reference to `wglMakeCurrent@8'
simpleci.o(.text+0xc89):simpleci.c: undefined reference to
`wglDeleteContext@4'

But I soon realized that that was because of the "@NN"'s that are produced
due to the fact that the wgl* functions are standard calls.  So I removed
the "STDCALL"'s from the wgl* function declarations which are in
<Windows32/Function.h>.

Then I compiled again and got no errors.  But when I run the a.exe I
immediately get:

Any ideas?
