Thanks, Jan.  Here's the output of otool for my new libR

bash-3.2$ otool -L libR.dylib
libR.dylib:
        libR.dylib (compatibility version 2.10.0, current version 2.10.0)
        /usr/local/lib/libreadline.6.0.dylib (compatibility version
6.0.0, current version 6.0.0)
        /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0,
current version 7.0.0)
        libRblas.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
        /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.2.dylib (compatibility version
3.0.0, current version 3.0.0)
        /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation
(compatibility version 150.0.0, current version 476.18.0)
        /usr/lib/libicucore.A.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 36.0.0)
        /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 111.1.4)
        /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 1.0.0)

Any obvious problems?

Simon's binaries have been great; I am just trying the source build to
get more rapid access
to changes to devel.

One item that may be noteworthy -- for the new build,

> sessionInfo()
R version 2.10.0 Under development (unstable) (2009-07-24 r48993)
i386-apple-darwin9.7.0

locale:
[1] C

attached base packages:
[1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base
> .Machine$sizeof.pointer
[1] 8

what must be done to get the i386- prefix corrected?
