The source distribution won't build a liboogl.so, but it will build a
liboogl.a, which should do just as well.  You'd find it in
   ...whatever.../Geomview/lib/sgi/liboogl.a

Since, to build the C-language examples, you'll also need other libraries
which were built by the source distribution, you'll need to mention the
directory containing those libraries in a "-L" option on the
"cc" command that links the program:

   cc -o program ... -L...whatever.../Geomview/lib/sgi -loogl -lshade  ...

Does that make sense?
