Bug Description

According to the OpenGL recommendations/requirements, the gl.h header should
not unilaterally include the glext.h header. Rather, it should protect that
inclusion with a test for the GL_GLEXT_LEGACY symbol. See issue 5.4 at the
following link for details:

http://www.opengl.org/registry/ABI/

Currently, the gl.h header included in the LSB packages does not test for
GL_GLEXT_LEGACY before pulling in glext.h. That same issue also mentions a
similar situation for glx with the glxext.h header and GLX_GLXEXT_LEGACY
symbol.
