If libgl is linked against what libraries it needs, then -lgl is all you
would need (the linker should pull in everything else for you --- try it!). 
So, just use AC_CHECK_LIB(gl, whatever).

I can't think of a good way to do the -framework business, but you make it
sound like that's not necessary anyway....
