Ah, that would be my fault. I haven't been updating the examples. I
don't like GLUT for various reasons. For example, the translation of
the nehe-tuts that I maintain use OpenGLRaw and GLFW-b instead of
OpenGL and GLUT.
As a previous freeglut contributor, I am shocked! ;-) More seriously:
Perhaps I can put GLUT versions of nehe-tuts into the GLUT package, if
that's OK for you and I have time. Examples are still our best
documentation, so the more there are, the better it is.
That's fine with me. Many of the examples used to use GLUT and OpenGL,
just look through the git history.

When I work on those tutorials again I have two directions I want to work in:
  * Add font support/examples using my freetype2 binding.
  * Clone each example and do it using the more modern OpenGL concepts
instead of the fixed function immediate mode.

Send me your Github username and I can give you a commit bit in the
haskell-opengl organization.
Very surprisingly, it is "svenpanne". ;-)
Done. :)
