I'm not sure why I must specify "-package GLUT" and "-lglut" but that prevents the linker errors.  Also, shouldn't configure correctly figure out how to link the GLUT libraries?  Can someone explain?

You're overriding the information recorded by ghc-pkg (which is used if you use ghc --make).

As for why configure doesn't work, I think you'd have to let someone who knows the HOpenGL build stuff look at your system.
