[R-SIG-Mac] Link needed to use beta test build of R-2.3.1

[Simon Urbanek]

Thanks, Doug.

In fact this is a bug in the nightly path fix-up, because the binary  
is not supposed to have any links to /usr/local/gcc4.0 as it is not  
required for running R. I have fixed it so the next build should be ok.

I'm glad that at least someone actually tests the beta/RC ..

Thanks,
Simon
