I downloaded the universal nightly build of R-patched from
http://r.research.att.com/, which identifies itself as
Version 2.3.1 RC (2006-05-26 r38204)
After installing it on an Intel Mac I found that I couldn't run it
because it tried to dyld a library that wasn't present. I played
around with removing and installing the gcc403 package a bit then
realized that it was a matter of the name and could be solved by
adding a symlink
cd /usr/local/gcc4.0
sudo mkdir i686-apple-darwin8
cd i686-apple-darwin8
sudo ln -s ../lib .
The problem is that the name /usr/local/gcc4.0/i686-apple-darwin/lib
is hardwired in the i686 executable but that directory is not
installed by the gcc403 package.
