stdlib.h contains a prototype for the exit() function. If included from C++ this prototype defines exceptions that can be thrown by exit. GL/glut.h also prototypes exit() (together with reams of comments explaining why they had to do such a stupid thing). This is quite safe from C as stdlib.h contains a normal prototype. Sadly for C++ the prototypes conflict and gcc generates an error. Compiling tuxracer (0.60.1) will demonstate this problem should reproduction prove difficult. I worked around by removing the prototype from glut.h but obviously this may impact other areas.
We've noticed (and fixed) this a couple of days ago; it's fixed in 3.3-7. Until the package appears in Rawhide, you can download it at http://www.linux-easy.com/rh-updates/
