I really don't know what you are trying to do with that test. glutInit is not called here, you're only checking the address of that function. As it is not loaded dynamically, it can only be different from NULL, otherwise linking would have failed.

As stated in the opengl-1.1.0-9 and -10 anouncements and in 
/usr/share/doc/opengl-1.1.0/README.txt , you must now add
-I/usr/include/opengl at compile time to avoid conflicts with freeglut.
 
Also, the correct linking for glu is -lglu32. It didn't matter here, but it will when you
build a more elaborate program. Please check /usr/share/doc/opengl-1.1.0/README.txt .

libglut32.a was part of the w32api package before version 3.13-1 . If you have 
w32api-3.12-1 or older, you're getting libglut32.a from the w32api package, not the one 
from the opengl package. The opengl package depends on the w32api package, so updating the
opengl package should have updated the w32api package first.
 
What is the result of:
cygcheck -c opengl
cygcheck -c w32api
cygcheck -c libglut3
cygcheck -c libglut-devel
?

What is the output of ls -l /usr/lib/w32api/libglut32.a ?
 
It should match:
Fri Dec  5 15:57:41 2008          90472 usr/lib/w32api/libglut32.a
from the opengl-1.1.0-10 package; otherwise, you have the file from an old w32api package.
 
You can also try:
 
gcc test.c /usr/lib/w32api/libglut32.a -lglu32 -lopengl32
 
To check if -lglut32 leads to the right thing.
