You need to install glut. Display and register uses opengl libraries, 
which is implemented by glut (OpenGL Utility Toolkit). If you use a 
debian-style OS

apt-get install freeglut-devel

should do it. And if you do you might as well use the deb packages for 
the minc tools, http://packages.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/deb/ , instead of 
compiling yourself.

Otherwise: http://freeglut.sourceforge.net/
