Hi:

It would be more helpfull if you give more information. How do you install 
R, precompiled or from the source?

Any way, I have R running on the same hardware; I did install it from the 
source through fink. Among many others, the following files are on 
/sw/lib/

libncurses++.5.0.2.dylib
libncurses++.5.dylib
libncurses++.a
libncurses++.dylib
libncurses++.la
libncurses.5.0.2.dylib
libncurses.5.dylib
libncurses.a
libncurses.dylib
libncurses.dylib.5
libncurses.la

Regards.
