in reply to PDL questions

... PDL packages expect a static freeglut library and not a dynamic freeglut library

Yes, best to use a statically built OpenGL-0.63 with the PDL packages from Uwinnipeg.

Sorry, I thought I had uploaded OpenGL-0.63 for perl 5.10 to the uwinnipeg rep - but you're right, it's still at 0.62. I'm uploading 0.63 as I type - and I'll update this post when it's all done. (Might take 30 minutes or so to get it uploaded, and then check that it's right.)

Cheers,
Rob

UPDATE: Right - should be ok now, see how you go. The webpage still reports the version as 0.62, but running:
ppm install http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/PPMPackages/10xx/OpenGL.ppd
will give you version 0.63. The webpage will be corrected.
