Right.  The reason is that OpenGL exists independently of X.  You can
have (and some people do have) UNIX-based systems with OpenGL but
without X.

In theory, the stuff in /usr/include/GL/gl.h is applicable to all OpenGL
systems.  /usr/include/GL/glx.h would be available only on systems that
support OpenGL under X.
