Hi Edsko, thanks for the reply. The only things that might affect the outcome are:
a) Ghc version: I'm running ghc 7.6.2 instead of 7.6.1 b) Don't know if you are using cabal-dev as sandboxing (like any good Haskell programmer I'm too lazy to open your blog post :D ), whilst I'm using hsenv c) I've brewed GTK instead of manually installing it, but gtk-demo runs just fine d) Are you using XQuartz? If yes, which version? Thanks again! A.
