I've been looking into running a GLUE application under OS X, and hit the error described on http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/MacLibrary (a slew of NSAutreleasepool warnings followed by a "*** Uncaught exception: <NSInternalInconsistencyException> Error (1002) creating CGSWindow") and a crash in SDL.set_video_mode on its first glGet call.
This (completely naïve) approach based on the suggestions offered did not seem to do much good:
