I've done this now, and uploaded version 0.69 to CRAN.  This should also 
fix the "no update on resize" bug in OSX.

I haven't put in Simon's suggestion for supporting both X11 and Cocoa in 
one build by using multiple libraries yet, but it's on my todo list.
It looks a little messy, since now the decision on whether to support 
X11 or Cocoa is done at configure time.  Does anyone know of examples of 
packages that do the equivalent of two builds, with different configure 
options?
