Comment(by jcdenton513@…):

 You're solution worked for me.

 Concerning my solution, you could drop the modifying the configure file
 and just insert the variables directly to Makefile.in. The main reason I
 went the route I did was so if you ran ./configure it'd notice if
 `libmlgsl.a` was or wasn't avaliable. Being managed by a MacPorts, it
 would already know if the dependency was avaliable so checking with
 configure would be redundant and that step can be left out.

 I attached another patch that'll do just that, getting rid of the autoconf
 requirement.

 Whether you use my patch or the other I guess depends on if you want it to
 use an external library or the static library in orpie's source. The only
 advantage I can see with my way is if ocamlgsl is updated, orpie will
 benifit. Unless that upgrade breaks orpie. Both look like they're not
 actively maintained so it probably wouldn't matter either way. Can't be
 positive about ocamlgsl though.
