I had set it up so that my controller just calls "Fl:run" in a 
new thread it creates; that way it would only get called one.

I'm not 100% sure what the difference is.  My working hypothesis is that 
it has something to do with how libtool loads in the plugins on each 
platform.

FLTK keeps a global static object with all kinds of state information in 
it.  I suspect on linux, when my plugin loads in that its able to access 
the global static state object and thus works fine.

In OS X it appears that the global state is not available, requiring the 
creation of one local to the plugin.

I need to dig into it in more depth to determine for sure what is going 
on; it could also be how I'm linking FLTK into my plugin and into stage 
(static linking).

Thanks,
