xlibmesa-glu-dev, maybe?  'apt-cache search libglu|grep -- -dev' returns
a few likely looking packages, but I'm not sure which ones you
want/need.  Also, 'apt-cache showsrc xscreensaver | grep ^Build-Depends'
shows you the packages you have to install to build xscreensaver
successfully.  Here, it mentions 'xlibmesa-dev | libgl-dev', amongst
others.  Do you have on of them?
