[R-SIG-Mac] Re : R 2.1.1 for optimized for G5+Tiger

[Naji]

A simulation case (50x34x5x3 & 250 replications) each based on behavior of
2500 consumers takes
- 1h with the 'old' version 2.1.0
- 35min using 2.1.1 for G5&Tiger
on a G5 bi-proc (2.5 Mhz, 2Go)
(both after restarting the MAC)

 Well done Simon
