I tried your suggestion, no dice, but you gave me an idea... rtfm!
So I read the README file for gtkglext, and there is a flag that
allows you to specify where to look and if you tell it to look in
the /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Versions/A/Libraries
it seems to configure and install okay. Unfortunately that is not
enough in my case as I am trying to get a macport to work that
requires this. Although I have now installed gtkglext, macports
doesn't know it and tries to install it again. Of course it fails,
and so I am back to the beginning. This is definitely an
interesting development, I wonder if I can pass this flag to the
ports command? Another option would be to figure out how macports
knows it installed something and just trick it into knowing it has
it. Maybe it is time to rtfm for macports \grin.
Thanks for not calling me a dummy... mike

Mike, generally speaking you can set flags inside the port file in
MacPorts as well as specify dependencies among other things. May I
suggest you bring this up on the MacPorts mailing list -- see:
