[GtkGLExt] gtkglext 1.2.0 fails to compile

["Eugéne Suter" <easuter gmail com>]

Hi there!

I'm trying to build Celestia, and it seems that one of the requirements is gtkglext.
Anyhow, I got the 1.2.0 tarball from sourceforge, and used the followin flags to configure the sources:

./configure --prefix=/usr

Nothing out of the ordinary..but the make fails even after  a successful configure:

I can't seem to find anything using Google that matches my problem exactly.
I have tried upgrading to the latest gtk version (2.10.6 i think), but still get the same error.

any help is much appreciated!
