2.4 make/compile problems

I  noticed the following lines while I was running ./configure on a
Solaris-Ultra 1 box. OpenGL is installed per Sun's installation. I have also
verified that it is working properly.

env CXX=/vol/pub/gcc-2.8.0/bin/g++ CC=/vol/pub/gcc-2.8.0/bin/gcc ./configure
--with-shared --with-patented --with-contrib
...
checking for GL/gl.h... no
checking for /usr/openwin/share/include/GL/glxmd.h... no
checking for /opt/graphics/OpenGL/include/GL/glxmd.h... no
checking for /usr/X11R6/include/GL/glxmd.h... no
checking for OpenGL library... /usr/openwin/lib
...

Shouldn't it find some semblance of OGL in the system? Or is this all irrelevant
once you [setenv VTK_RENDERER OpenGL]?
I have also commented out the MESA /lib and /include lines in the user.make.
system.make and  Makefile have not been edited at all.

When I go to compile an example, I get a core dump pretty quickly, Gdb shows the
following errors:

(gdb) run
Starting program: /devel/vtk2.4/graphics/examplesCxx/ColorSph
[New LWP    2        ]
[New LWP    3        ]

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
vtkRenderWindow::AddRenderer (this=0x0, ren=0x25c70) at vtkRenderWindow.cxx:723
723       this->MakeCurrent();

I have a strong feeling that there is some common problem here that is not
letting stuff run.  I would be grateful if someone could shed some light here.
Also, since the FAQ seems to be offline, this problem may or may not have been
already addressed.
