So you can build and run a sample OpenGL app without CMake?  What
compiler, build, environment, and OS?

On Windows, when I encounter a problem such as this, I try it under
every different compiler environment.  MSVC, Cygwin, MinGW with
Command Prompt only, MinGW with MSYS.  If any 1 of 'em works, then
probably what means is, the guy who wrote the FindOpenGL or whatever
was using that platform and not your platform.  So there just hasn't
been enough testing on the other platforms.
