You are using an older version of Hat, so this behaviour may have been
fixed already in 2.04.  I'm not sure quite why it is failing.  But one
possible workaround is to explicitly give the current directory to hmake,
as a location to look for the .hx pseudo-interface files.  (Use -i.)

    hmake -hat -i. -package GLUT Main
