Problem running X11 on PPC Mac

[Gregory Wright]

Brad,

Did you apply the recent X11 update from Apple after you compiled
ghc?  If so, you might try uninstalling, cleaning and rebuilding the  
macports ghc.

There is a path issue; you should not have to specify  
DYLIB_LIBRARY_PATH.
At least in macports, this should be easy to fix.
