For me the same … 

Have you installed the Command Line Tools for Mavericks? The Tcl framework location has changed and following http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/RMacOSX-FAQ.html the X11 implementation of Tcl/Tk is used.

R draws into this just fine, but I can't move, close, or otherwise manipulate the window.  This occurs with X11() called from remote machines (an older R-2.14.1), and from R-3.0.0 and R-3.0.2 locally.  Other X applications, both locally- and remotely-executed, do not suffer from this issue.  I also upgraded Xquartz to the 2.7.5-rc3 recommended for Mavericks users by the Xquartz team, but it had no effect on this issue.  I don't know if this is an R issue or an Xquartz issue...any ideas?
