[gradsusr] opengrads extensions not working on Mac OSX?

[Henrique M. J. Barbosa - IFUSP]

Dear All,

I just tried something silly, but which worked. I downloaded and tried the
i386 version, and all extensions worked fine!! I considered it to be a
silly option because I'm sure my Mac is x86_64:


*Henriques-iMac:~ hbarbosa$ uname -aDarwin Henriques-iMac.local 15.2.0
Darwin Kernel Version 15.2.0: Fri Nov 13 19:56:56 PST 2015;
root:xnu-3248.20.55~2/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64*

This means there is some bug in the so-called x86_64 version of open-grads
for OSX (but which has i386 directories inside).

It would be good if Arlindo and others could have a look at this.

cheers
Henrique
