you _do not_ need glut, whatever the readme says....
libglu is ok (and needed)
of course you will also need libGLU-devel.

which shouldn't be a problem, as they ought to be not needed

just some minor issue: why do you include the gltt-include-path and at 
the same time disbale gltt ?

i do not think that this is a good idea.
"iostream" and the like should (must!) be found by the compiler, as 
these are standard headers. they are so much standard, that they come 
with the compiler!
if a compiler doesn't find its own header-files then it is set up 
incorrectly.
adding "some" path to a header-file with the same name, can lead to very 
unexpected behaviour (but be assured, i might have tried it too...)

so the question is:
which compiler are you using ? (the version matters !)

do you have the stdlib installed for your version of your compiler ?
(on debian it is libstdc++5 for g++-3.3 & libstdc++6 for gcc-3.4; on 
fedora it might be totally different....); you will need the 
devel-package for the stdlib too
