sb6code/include/GL/glxext.h:683:67: error: unknown type name ‘GLXContextID’

Compile error on Ubuntu 13.10 Linux amd64:

I searched on the internet for this and i found out that i needed to add this line before line 683 in file sb6code/include/GL/glxext.h:

typedef XID GLXContextID;

After that it compiles fine.

This error happened after some update on Ubuntu. It compiled fine last week. I just wanted to notify you on this.
