With my (Gentoo) installation, I need to swap -lGL and -lGLU in the
definition for OpenGL to make things (including -package GLUT, for
some reason) work .  This is apparently a known bug:

but (also apparently) it's still doesn't work (ghc 6.2).

This is a known (but obviously still unfixed) bug in Gentoo's library dependencies, see e.g.

   http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/hopengl/2003-December/000459.html

Swapping the order would break linking on every "correct" platform, so
you can either fix your Gentoo or patch OpenGL's package configuration.
Keeping the illusion that everything is OK on Gentoo via ugly autoconf
hacks is something I don't intend to do because it hurts quality in the
long run...

Cheers,
