This bug has been fixed. It is not a bug specific to the R internals 
but to the R.app version of the quartz device (R.app, i.e. the GUI, 
embeds the R.framework, i.e. R 2.0.0 in your case).

You should look at http://www.economia.unimi.it/R to get the latest 
build of R.app or to get instructions on how to build (just) R.app from 
the latest sources.
