The file /usr/X11R6/lib/GL/glut.h Surely does not exist.It is not
expected to be there(afaik surely).glut.h is in
/usr/X11R6/include/GL/glut.h
Compiler expects something like
libglut.a there.I surely will try your suggestion out but I am not
particullary optimistic.
The file /usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.a exists also.

  Yes.Mesa port.You are right.
