This line screws up your entire system.  You sometimes see people on
various email lists recommend doing stuff like this, but this is a
specific place where OS X is very different from Linux.  In principle,
this could also mess with your other applications.

However, you also need to figure out how that got set in your GUI
(check by doing
Sys.getenv("DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH")
) and you will need to fix that as well in case fixing .profile does
not fix the GUI.
