pari roblot$ cat gp
#!/bin/sh
dir="`dirname \"$0\"`"
exec "$dir/gp-dyn.app/Contents/MacOS/gp-dyn" "$@"

I think the last lines of the output of 'make all' explain what is happening:

(...)
rm -f gp-dyn
/opt/local/bin/gcc  -o gp-dyn -L"/Users/roblot/pari/Odarwin-i386" -O3 -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing -fomit-frame-pointer    -Wl,-search_paths_first  gp.o gp_init.o gp_rl.o highlvl.o whatnow.o plotport.o plotfltk.o  -L/opt/local/lib -lreadline -lpari -L"/opt/local"/lib -lfltk -framework Carbon -framework Cocoa -lsupc++

Creating 'gp-dyn.app' bundle for desktop...

Best,
