The behaviour seems to differ between versions of OS X. A student has OS X 10.8 installed and is observing the described behaviour: 32-bit: interpreted and compiled work correctly 64-bit: only compiled code works correctly
However, I have OS X 10.6, and I'm observing the following behaviour: 32-bit: interpreted and compiled code work correctly 64-bit: interpreted and compiled code work correctly To test: cabal install gloss --flags="-GLUT GLFW" cabal unpack gloss-examples cd <unpacked-folder>/picture/GameEvent ghci -fno-ghci-sandbox Main.hs main I'll try to find another OS X 10.8 install (I don't want to upgrade) and see if the behaviour still emerges.
