[R-SIG-Mac] Crash when closing R-GUI

[Rob J Goedman]

This did happen on my system a couple of weeks ago. Not sure if it is  
the same issue.
Does it ask you if it should save the workspace?

Would you mind sending me your plist ( i.e. ~/Library/Preferences/ 
org.R-project.R.plist)?
Or you could rename/delete it and see if the crash still happens.
