I'm a new macuser, so my macexperience is \epsilon, \epsilon \to 0

The precompiled works with Apple X11, and it points to Apple's X11 dynamic libraries. My 
compiled version however points to the X11 libraries I used to compile. Maybe that's the 
source of trouble.
Anyway, it seems that the program stops when executing ftnunit. What does this piece of 
sotware do? It may be that the issue comes from fortran libraries, rather than GL.
In fact even if the precompiled version works, it gives a warning of missing library 
(libg2c, which is part of g77), which I solved by installing g77. To compile my version I 
used gfortran instead, so that this ftnunit links to the gfortran library now (but doesn't 
work...).
