libepoxy is like an extended gl.h;

#include can be replaced with #include , and -lGL with -lepoxy. If you are on Windows/Mac you will have to build the source, so it might not be worth it if you already have a loader that you prefer, but I have found it works pretty well as a drop in replacement for GL/gl.h for GL3.3+, that got rid of the errors.
