But it doesn't matter because even if you prefer to install
libGLU with XFREE86_VERSION=3, you're installing glut anyway.
It's the same as if I were to change the requirement for
x11/kde2 to pull in kdegames2.  You're just pointing out
semantics of LIB_DEPENDS that has never been respected.

Breaking libglut away from Mesa3 is a solution, but it requires
time which we do not have.
