Looks like you have an obsolete glpk version. The most recent version
is 4.37. You can download it either from <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glpk/>
or from some mirror ftp sites; see <http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html>.

If you are working under GNU/Linux or Cygwin, use the standard
procedure (see file INSTALL) to build and install the package.
If you are working under MS Windows, choose appropriate batch file in
subdirectory w32 to compile the package.

In any case to use the package from C/C++ you need only the header
glpk.h and the object library libglpk.a (or glpk.lib). For more details
please see the reference manual included in the distribution.
