[R-SIG-Mac] imageio configure?

[roger koenker]

Yes, this worked and I now have R 2.1.0 with both png and jpeg  
capabilities.

As an experiment I tried installing the X11 rgl from the mac  
binaries,  (Source
installation fails for me with an error on the int* to GLint*  
conversion that others have
mentioned as generating  only a warning.)  The binary rgl does work  
up to a point,
e.g. example(rgl) produces the volcano, but mouse movement to rotate the
image acts instead  like rgl.clear(), well, this is true for example 
(rgl), but for
the point cloud example(rgl.sphere) the mouse is able to rotate the  
cloud!
More theory obviously is needed.....
