I don't know if this is related but on trying to install the latest patched
version on a 64 bit Mac Pro, the installation process ended with a message

Install Failed

The Installer could not validate the contents of 
the 'r64' package.  Contact the software manufacturer
for assistance.

However, when I booted up R64.app, it gives

> sessionInfo()
R version 2.10.0 Patched (2009-11-23 r50545) 
x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0 

locale:
[1] en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8

attached base packages:
[1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base  

which is today's date, so it looks to be installed,  (The sizeof.pointer is 8).

Is there any other information that I should include here to help
track this down?

Thanks.

Ken
