[ODE] Building on MacOSX (and now Linux)

[Wesley Smith]

Why not link against the GLUT and OpenGL frameworks on OSX?  It's so
much easier and most environments are setup for it.  To compile the
Bullet domes on OSX, I changed their headers with the following
preprocessor commands:

#if defined(__APPLE_CC__)
 #include <GLUT/glut.h>
#else
 #include <GL/glut.h>
#endif
