[R-SIG-Mac] copy/paste problems

[Kjell Konis]

I generally use R in the terminal and build it with '--enable-R-shlib  
--disable-R-framework --without-aqua' and I am able to paste even  
thousands of lines into the terminal.  The only problem is that,  
since I do enable readline, R prints out a listing of the working  
directory every time it encounters a tab.
