libgl_s.a is in the gl_x_dev product.  'versions' will tell you if
you have gl_x_dev installed.

libgl_s is needed to run GL applications that were linked against the
shared gl library, hence it is in the runtime eoe images.  libgl_s.a 
is part of the gl developers image since it is needed to link a GL program.
