Problem running X11 on PPC Mac

[Deborah Goldsmith]

One of the people experiencing this sent me some sample code, and now  
I can reproduce it too, on both PPC and Intel.

I would guess that there is an issue with the way shared library  
loading works in interactive mode, as opposed to in the link phase  
when compiling.

You can work around the problem by launching ghci with  
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH set to include the X11 shared library directory.
