Hi,
I could compile and run from sources on fc5 after I changed a bit :

and changed some nasty macros in game_config.c: 
1) init macros changed to :

#define INIT_PARAM( nam, val, typename, commnt ) \
   pParams->nam.loaded = False; \
   pParams->nam.name = #nam; \
   pParams->nam.deflt.typename##_val  = val; \
   pParams->nam.comment = commnt;

#define INIT_PARAM_STRING( nam, val, commnt ) \
   INIT_PARAM( nam, val, string, commnt ); \
   pParams->nam.type = PARAM_STRING;

#define INIT_PARAM_CHAR( nam, val, commnt ) \
   INIT_PARAM( nam, val, char, commnt ); \
   pParams->nam.type = PARAM_CHAR;

#define INIT_PARAM_INT( nam, val, commnt ) \
   INIT_PARAM( nam, val, int, commnt ); \
   pParams->nam.type = PARAM_INT;

#define INIT_PARAM_BOOL( nam, val, commnt ) \
   INIT_PARAM( nam, val, bool, commnt ); \
   pParams->nam.type = PARAM_BOOL;


2) and function macros changed to:

#define FN_PARAM( name, typename, type ) \
    type getparam_##name() { \
        if ( !Params.name.loaded ) { \
            fetch_param_##typename( &( Params.name ) ); \
        } \
        return Params.name.val.typename##_val; \
    } \
    void setparam_##name( type val) { \
        set_param_##typename( &( Params.name ), val ); } 

also comented out some check in configure.in like this
dnl Check for glXGetProcAddressARB
dnl AC_CHECK_FUNCS( glXGetProcAddressARB, has_glx_get_proc=yes, 
dnl                has_glx_get_proc=no )

and caled auto tools to recreate the configure script.

Seems that the message about outdated glx.h is misleading as I could compile
without reinstalling mesa.
 
Hope this helps.
