you could write it on your own
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
glrotate(into the view direction);
gltranslate(vieworigin);
glMaxtrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);

it''s my opinion that the projection matrix should never be used for camera movement/translation..

Not quite code, but an idea...
Store angles, position, and up/side/front unit vectors
Each time you update the view matrix, update all your unit vectors from that matrix.
To move ahead/Upwards/Sidewards (does that word even EXIST?), just add corresponding unit vector * distance to your position vector, and update the matrix.
Or wait until Extatica and it''s cool camera system designed by me in person is out ;-)
Extatica is coming soon!

because some people think it is easier
