Comment(by jim.stuttard):

 How many ISP's have OpenGL installed? Web servers don't provide graphics.
 This is an obstacle to the adoption of Haskell in the cloud and haskell
 web services. The workaround requires either installing drm, glproto etc.
 or cutting GL and GLUT sections from the HP configure script or building
 all the non-graphics HP libs manually. Is there a better alternative than
 removing this and GLUT?
