Your link is for Panther, my link was for Jaguar. The wxHaskell also has a screenshot on Panther: http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net/images/controls-macosx2.png
Of note though, the main problem with WX is not that the controls look different, it's that they behave differently. UI is not just about looks ;).
Ok.. how do they behave? I bet you that they behave better than the Gtk controls on OS X... ugh. You are right that UI is not just looks. That's another of the issues with X11 on OS X, it behaves wrong. The command key doesn't do anything, so for example, it's a major pain to use Gimp on OS X without a two button mouse. How about Qt? Do you know if Qt behaves well on OS X? I thought that Qt didn't look native on OS X (I'm on Ubuntu right now, so I can't check). Daniel.
