changed extensions from .c to .cpp and got compiling as C files as part of the osg core library.
Updated and cleaned up the rest of the OSG to use the new internal GLU.
that has greater than unsigned short number of vertexes. An object
called vertexPtrToIndexMap contains vertexes and their indexes. This
std::map object can obviously hold a quantity that is greater than
unsigned short, however osg::DrawElementsUShort objects were being
created to reference these vertexes and their indexes.
osg::DrawElementsUShort can only hold indexes that are 16-bit
quantities.

proposed_patch_2\tessellator.cpp. This solution examines the size of
vertexPtrToIndexMap and selects 1 of 3 possible osg::DrawElements
objects: DrawElementsUByte, DrawElementsUShort, or DrawElementsUInt.
The main drawback of this particular solution is the code duplication.
However, the repair is straightforward."
