4. There is an outstanding bug preventing GLFW programs to be invoked from GHCi on OS X. One has to compile before running GLFW programs.

Does it still happen with -fno-ghci-sandbox? That fixes these sort of bugs with GLFW-b (and other libraries). If so, then the cause of the problem is the use of thread local storage in the vendor APIs (OpenGL on OSX is an example). I hope that helps, Jason
