Sorry to reply to my own post, but I have more info.  This probably 
needs to come to the attention of the Mac R developers.

Xcode 2.0 does not have a more recent libxml2.2.dylib.

The problem only manifests itself when running R 2.1.0 from the command 
line, not within the Aqua GUI.

Thanks for your patience.
