Because most people use XFree86 4.x. XFree86 4.x includes Mesa and produces libGL (and libGLU), which can't be updated to a more recent Mesa due to the DRI drivers being closely tied to Mesa. If you want Mesa 5 for updated libglut or for XFree86 3.3.x, I have been working on an update/split of the Mesa3 port, but probably won't have time to finish it until after finals. -- Eric Anholt eta@lclark.edu http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/ anholt@FreeBSD.org
