[Rd] C headers

[Göran Broström]

I went through this pain two days ago, but I managed both building R 
from source and my own packages by following Brian Ripley excellent (as 
always) pointers on the r-sig-mac mailing list (around october 2013). 
Look there, and ask further questions on that list.
