configure: error: Cannot find GL library

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

This would build with Tiger's X11 no problems. So can anyone give me a hint about where to look for the cause of this error?

Where to look: In the file "config.log" that sits beside the configure script.

Probable cause of the error: An infamous bug (or "improvement" according to Apple) in /usr/bin/ld that prevents linking to /usr/X11/lib/libGL.dylib without extra contortions. See <http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2007/qa1567.html>
