Not really, but I can offer a hint: I think your system has the
_runtime_ libraries for X11 (in /usr/X11), but you need _development_
libraries to comile rgl.
I have no knowledge about Mac OS, but in my system, Debian GNU/Linux,
the needed libraries to build rgl from source are:
libgl1-mesa-dev
libglu1-mesa-dev
mesa-common-dev
