Also:

~/Work/source/ghc-6.6 debbie$ find . -name 'HSOpenGL*' -print
./lib/i386-apple-darwin/HSOpenGL.o

Since the files are not in the distribution itself, they can hardly  
be installed. :-) It looks like the Mac OS X Intel distribution has a  
problem. I'll check the PPC distribution later to see if it has the  
same problem.
