Recently? It should hopefully be much smoother now than in the past
with pulling the mesa source into the xserver build tree.

As long as pkg-config finds the right gl.pc file, you should be in
good shape. This will populate GL_CFLAGS. If you really need to
workaround this, you can set GL_CFLAGS in the environment (or on the
configure command line) and pkg-config will skip it's checks and use
those values.
