[R-SIG-Mac] Problem compiling 64-bit R with X11 on Tiger

[Simon Urbanek]

Christina,

Tiger does not have 64-bit X11, so you either have to disable X11  
support (--without-x) or install 64-bit version of X11 from somewhere.  
If you use the (rather old) R-25-br binary, then it expects X11 to be  
in /usr/local/X11R7 (you can download it at you own risk from
http://r.research.att.com/Xorg-quad.tar.gz
I didn't test it recently but it is the full client including headers  
etc. for all four architectures

Cheers,
Simon
