Actually, glitz has multi-backend support for several different OpenGL
implementations. See the following header files:

	glitz-glx.h
	glitz-agl.h
	glitz-egl.h

So that should cover OpenGL systems through GLX, AGL, or EGL, (which
means Linux and other X systems, Apple's GL stuff, and certain
embedded GL things). There was some noise about a WGL backend for
glitz to work on win32 OpenGL. I don't recall how far that got or if
there was a patch for it, but I don't see anything currently
committed.
