I'll add my own (generated) binding to the list:

https://github.com/henkboom/dokidoki/blob/master/gl.c
https://github.com/henkboom/dokidoki/blob/master/glu.c

They suit my purposes because they are very simple and self-contained.
For glLightfv and other such functions pointers can be given as either
lightuserdata or regular lua strings. This means that it's at least
possible (if not always entirely practical) to manipulate/create the
data from lua. (though I usually use memarray.c for actual array
manipulation).

They mostly support the earlier opengl APIs though, without
extensions. I'll probably regenerate them off of newer header files
sometime soon.
