No - you can't. That's actually an operating system restriction
under some OS's - so to be portable, GLUT (and therefore freeglut)
doesn't let you read the modifier keys outside of the mouse and
keyboard callbacks.
The reason is that these are MODIFIER keys - they MODIFY the function
of other keys or of the mouse - so it doesn't make sense to read them
other than when other keys/mouse are doing something.

Nope - not going to happen because it's not possible for such functions
to be portable.
Sorry!
