[Rd] JGR extension not working (PR#13501)

[Simon Urbanek]

Erik,

fist, this is not a bug in R (not a bug at all, really), so we  
specifically ask you to not waste other people's time and report it to  
the maintainers. It is about a contributed package and there is a  
mailing list specifically for JGR
http://mailman.rz.uni-augsburg.de/mailman/listinfo/stats-rosuda-devel
In addition, you are apparently using a custom-built R so you are  
expected to know what you're doing. If you had used the R binary from  
CRAN all would work. If you insist on compiling it from sources you  
have to set NOAWT=1 and install latest iplots in order to prevent AWT  
from starting since it's not supported on Mac OS X 10.5 inside single- 
threaded applications (such as R).

Cheers,
Simon
