You ought to a) include more context in your replies, and b) post on R-SIG-Mac. 

The advice in the Admin-guide can be found here, although it says no testing has been done recently for SL:

https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html#OS-X

I suspect there are more difficulties with SL builds than just this problem. You will probably need to include all your setup information and the full configure log when you post this on the correct mailing list.
