glfwInit crashes when using multiple monitors (glfw3, glew, opengl 3.2, osx mavericks, macbook pro '11)

Using as bare bones implementation as possible (essentially just

(apparently this forum software doesn’t like hashtags or triangle brackets, but imagine they are there)
include GL/glew.h
include GLFW/glfw3.h
int main()
{
glfwInit();
}

), I get an error when an external monitor is plugged in:

Error: Cocoa: Failed to find NSScreen for CGDisplay
app(80134,0x7fff7b8a0310) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fab9af003e0: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

using llvm-g++. Any ideas of where this bug lies?
