Description of problem:
When GLUT is called from within ghci it fails to link because the dependency on
libglut is not mentioned in the package registration.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ghc-GLUT-devel-2.1.1.2-2.fc12.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
$ ghci
> import Graphics.UI.GLUT
> getArgsAndInitialize

Actual results:

Loading package GLUT-2.1.1.2 ... linking ... <interactive>:
/usr/lib64/ghc-6.10.4/GLUT-2.1.1.2/HSGLUT-2.1.1.2.o: unknown symbol `glutGet'
ghc: unable to load package `GLUT-2.1.1.2'

Expected results:

Loading package GLUT-2.1.1.2 ... linking ... done.
("<interactive>",[])

Additional info:
If the file /usr/lib64/ghc-6.10.3/GLUT-2.1.1.2/register.sh is edited to append
"glut" to the line that says "extra-libraries:" and then the package is
unregistered and reregistered, the error goes away.
