How did you install R?

What version of XCode do you have?  I have 3.2.1 and can build RSQLite
from source from an R that I have compiled from source.  If you have
an earlier version, please try upgrading and repeating the install.

The mac binary package is intended to work with the R binary installer
for OS X.  So if you want to use it, you need to install R that way.

Hope that helps some.
