Cool, thanks.

Can you maybe follow-up with Robert about other possible cause of this?  As I
(as a non-Mac-user) understand it, there are numerous ways to install R (and
presumably Pg) onto OS X and the bug may bite only in some.  His suggested
fix strikes me as correct, though, as $TEMPDIR permissions are a general
Unixy way of doing things.
