Did you check the configure arguments carefully, or is your mailer that 
has catenated:

.../unix/include-with-proj-lib=/Library/Frameworks/...

instead of:

.../unix/include --with-proj-lib=/Library/Frameworks/...

Do you need to install from source because of drivers, or would the 
standard OSX install of:

setRepositories(ind=1:2)
install.packages("rgdal")

be sufficient, with only standard drivers?
