I have just updated the CRAN with the latest build of R 150.
The archive also contains all the base and recommended packages.
It will be mirrored in a couple of days or so.
Contributed packages will follow in few days.

Here the Changes for version 1.5.0
Macintosh-specific changes to R
===============================
rm150
=====
* using dev.off() when a user close a windows instead
of killing directly the device
* changed MPWBuild to take care of changes in the src/include
directory
* fixed a bug with path length (Thanks to T.Lumley)
* fixed a problem with building help files. In particular,
html help files now have correct links
* added system() functionality under MacOS X. When R is
running under MacOS X, it is now possibile to run BSD
shell commands via the system() R command. Very limited
at the moment but working.
* fixed the problem with the error message: "negative length vectors
are not allowed". Now you should not experiment this anymore.
* MacZip not needed anymore.
Note for developers:
--------------------
For the people who want to build R from sources: you should the replace
the file src/macintosh/MPWBuild with the one you find in this prebuilt
distribution of R for Macintosh. See details in the file README_MAC.TXT
inside rm150 folder.
