Hmm, strange:
[hans@shalem ~]$ rpm -q --requires libXmu-devel
libXmu-devel-1.0.3-1.fc7.x86_64
libX11-devel  
libXext-devel  
<snip>

And libXmu-devel is BR'd, anyways I'll just add libXext-devel to the BR's too,
I'll do a new version with this fixed when a full review is done, as I dislike
doing a zillion iterations.

I still don't know I don't necessarily object to having a -utils package, but
the other glew submission has the docs seperate too, no I think that most of the
docs should be moved to the -devel packahge, but splitting them off?

All files in the combined packages way in at 1 MB combined, I think splitting
this up 4 ways is over the top. I really only see 2 (3) reasons for splitting of
any utility binaries from libs:
1) They drag in dependencies on which the lib itself doesn't depend
2) They take up lots of diskspace
3) The cause multilib conflicts (this is fixable by making scripts identical
   between the i3986 and x86_64 version though)

Non of this is the case here, so I say lets just have a glew and a glew-devel
(and move most of the docs to glew-devel, as they describe mostly the API.
