Simon,
The way I am imagining this working out is that the linked path and
R_HOME will both be set dynamically relative to the location of R.app
when it is launched. The @executable_path token seems to do the trick
for the linked path. R.app always finds libR.dylib in the embedded
framework even if the R_HOME variable is not set. Tomorrow I will try
to get Rcontroller to set R_HOME relative to the location of R.app at
launch. Then (again the way I am imagining things) everything should
work unless you move R.app while it is running - which hopefully the OS
won't let you do.
