I think the Mac page on CRAN points to something obsolete.  From the R 
GUI, CarbonEL is visible.  You can also find the source on SourceForge 
using Google.

However, it didn't work for me:  I still get the "interactivity reduced" 
message, and when I try to plot something, just an error 
"CGGSStackRestore:  gstack underflow."

This is in R in a terminal, with sessionInfo reporting:

R version 2.5.0 (2007-04-23)
i386-apple-darwin8.9.1

with CarbonEL "0.1-3".
