I had some similar problems and had to fiddle with my DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH so
that ghc-related executables would see the libffi.dylib that comes with GHC
before any of my system-wide installed libffi.dylib.

Why the permissive @rpath link for libffi.dylib if the GHC executables are
supposed to come with their own?
