In linux you need to run /sbin/ldconfig as root after installing manually a new software to register shared libraries This is frequently overlooked when installing with a package manager, because it does so automatically. This is indicated in the top level readme file of grx. Does this exists in OS X ? or an equivalent ? If so try with the -v option to see what it does: the directories in which links are registered are indicated. In my system I see that way registering X11, png, tiff, jpeg and grx libraries. For you, it could be also the problem with X11 libraries

You have hit the nail on its head. There is no ldconfig on Mac OS X. But there were hints to dyld, libtool and ranlib, which I did not need until now. So, i am reading the docs about them and will come back after I found out more.
