I fixed the main loop issue with destroy-current-window. If something else does not work as it should, someone should post about how freeglut works for these bits. I don't have linux or x11 here and can't test what freeglut does when windows are destroyed.
I can't do anything about CCL as the issue is not that simple. The code that is commented out in interface.lisp simply interrupts the initial thread and starts the glut event loop there.
This does not work (window comes up but event loop is blocked and i can't do anything) because, in CCL, the initial thread does certain housekeeping tasks and one can not simply hijack it. Someone familiar with how CCL does things might want to look into this, specifically into what CCL does with their cocoa event loop and duplicate the functionality.
I did solve that issue by "cloning" code taken from examples/opengl-ffi.lisp
in CCL source distribution. I still didn't had the time to get on my laptop (where the code is), but I'll be able to send it soon.
The same strategy of interrupting the initial thread and starting the glut event loop there works fine in SBCL but i haven't included the code as for most scenarios the default behavior of SBCL where the REPL is on the initial thread (this is not true when slime is involved of course, one has to do the interrupt trick then) should suffice.

Here is a cleaner version against current cl-opengl without the extra wm-close methods.
Looking good, though it still doesn't seem to exit the main loop. Here's how I reproduce that bug:
- (require :cl-glut-examples)
...
- (cl-glut-examples:rb-cube) ; for instance
<press Esc to close the window and the function won't return>
Also, this patch doesn't work on at least CCL because of that threading issue I mentioned earlier.
