Looking at the other lines in the file, it looks like only the .pbc
needs to be included, not the .pir.  I'll have to investigate why that's
happening.  Still, I see these entries in my MANIFEST.generated; why are
they not in the cygwin copy?

My apologies for missing this.  I try to be responsive to OpenGL issues,
but this ticket completely fell off my radar.  I've added myself to the
CC list, in case you make any future updates to the ticket.

Does it work just to use the basenames for each of these?  In other
words, can you use 'cygglut-3' instead of '/usr/bin/cygglut-3.dll' ?  If
the basename doesn't work, what about 'cygglut-3.dll'?  And even if the
full path is needed, why /usr/bin?  Shouldn't that be /usr/lib?
