Out of interest, why (the hell!) would the R installer trying to
temper with gcc's files? It looks like it is either trying to rename
or delete them.

R needs gfortran's runtime library, and tries to detect for its 
presence, that's fair enough... modifying, no. Is the failure
because the R installer try to put in some of gcc/xcode, which the
user already has, or something like that?
