Hi,
yep - that's the problem I had.
run cabal with the -v (verbose option)
cabal install -v
so you can see exactly where it's failing
try the following :
--extra-lib-dirs=PATH
where PATH was (for me) was /sw/lib
I'm not sure but I may have had to use --extra-include-dirs also.
Generally I have a lot of trouble with cabal installing things
properly using the mac, but the above options usually fix the problem.
I did get hmatrix working. Then when I ran a an example which did a
simple vector operation, it segfaulted. However the linear algebra
routines all seemed to work. Let me know what happens.
The linux pc gave me even more problems which I eventually traced to
LD_LIBRARY_PATH needing to include the lib dirs.
HTH.

can you provide some error messages and we can see if your problems
are the same one's I saw.
If this helps, here is the error message I got:
