Sorry, no automatic OSX binaries, because of dependence on external 
libraries PROJ.4 and GDAL. Mac OSX installation is carried out from the 
source package, details in the section of the Rgeo website describing 
rgdal:

http://www.sal.uiuc.edu/tools/tools-sum/rgeo/rgeo-detail/map-packages-on-cran

Thanks to Uwe Ligges, we have Windows binaries, but after discussions with 
the OSX maintainers, we found that with multiple architectures and 64/32 
bit issues, Mac OSX should be treated like Linux/Unix for rgdal - 
installed from source respecting the installed external dependencies.
