darchon, aren't these both symptoms of the same Cabal bug? Namely that `-framework` isn't passed to GHC. It would be great if someone could track down why this is the case.
I would find that hard to believe... because, as seen in comment:21 and comment:27, passing the {{{--ghc-options="-framework GLUT"}}} options to Cabal still doesn't make GHC pass the {{{-framework}}} flag to the system linker. I would find it extremely hard to believe that Cabal: 1. Parses the content of {{{--ghc-options}}} and 2. then actively deletes/filters the {{{-framework}}} part. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10568#comment:41 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
