[ODE] Use of GLUT for rendering

[Shamyl Zakariya]

I had good luck with using glut for window management, albeit I'm 
running on OSX. If you'd like the glut implementation I wrote, I'll 
send it to you.

On my system, at least, I get no flicker. BTW, I do use glutIdleFunc; I 
considered using glutTimerFunc, but idle worked so well I decided not 
to bother.

Interested?
