I'm not sure if it's going to fix your problems ... I only mentioned  
it since Ken said something about a GUI version being different is all.

Perhaps running through the terminal can side-step your immediate  
problem and let you keep working until someone can parse your error  
log and come up with a better idea :-)

All you have to do is fire up Terminal.app and launch R from the prompt:

$ R

Try to source('/the/co.var/script.R') that's giving you problems and  
see how it works.

HTH,
