- try inserting

#ifdef WIN32
#include <windows.h>
#endif

- before
#include <GL/gl.h>

And you should link to opengl32.lib, sdlmain.lib, sdl.lib. Furthermore 
if linking dynamically (which is the most common I guess), you should set:
in project settings -> C/C++ -> Category [Code Generation] -> 
Multithreaded DLL

- instead of single-threaded!
