Build tree quoestion

["J . A . Magallon" <jamagallon@xxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone. I am new to the list, so sorry for any inconvenience.

I have tried to build OIV on a Mandrake 7.2 system (g++ 2.96, XFree4.0.1,
GLU from Mesa-common-3.4).
There a a couple of questions. 

The tree does not build directly. I uses the old polygon tesselator in
GLU1.1-mode, and GLU from Mesa3.4 is 1.2. I have almost done the changes
on a CVS version dated Nov19 (easy, just a couple of #ifdef GLU_VERSION_1_1).
Same is happening with texture objects: texgen is an EXT (glTexGenEXT)
prior to GL 1.1, but a mandatory proc in 1.1+ (glTexGen). Same with
BindTexture.

And a question-suggestion: is system intended to be built with GNUmake, and
ONLY gnumake (don't know if the source tree is going to be used on SGI ?
If the answer is yes, the makefiles could be cleaned-simplified (I have read
in the list about somebody working on autoconf/automake, but in the interin
I can send small patches to clean the thing). They are small changes,
for example not doing things like 'cd dir && make' but 'make -Cdir',
and even other features of GNU make like VPATH and so on. BTW, if anyone
likes the pathes, here go...(apply in src tree root)
