Are you actually using r3.showdspf.openGL (from GMSL/g3d)? AFAIK, this
is the only program which actually requires libGLwM. As it currently
has outstanding bugs, it isn't in the 5.0.0 release branch in CVS.

Also, its documentation specifically refers to using Mesa's libGLw
(from the widgets-sgi directory) rather than libMesaGLwM (from
widgets-mesa).

I don't want to change configure to accept libMesaGLwM in place of
libGLwM unless it's known to work.

If GMSL/g3d isn't going to make it into the release, we may as well
just remove the GLw checks altogether; otherwise they just confuse
people.
