[R-SIG-Mac] make install fails

Thanks. rm -Rf /Library/Frameworks/R.framework did the trick, so it was obviously an error on my end.

My system is/was clean insofar as all I have done regarding R is use ./configure, make, make install on a freshly formatted harddrive.  One possible explanation for this could be a C-c during make install or a make install without sudo.  Granted, I do not see why either of these possibilities would create a non symlink.  This is based on a review of my bash history, which - unfortunately in this case - removes duplicate entries, so it is hard to see exactly what I did in what order.

Anyway, it is probably pointless to speculate about the cause.
