[R-SIG-Mac] R GUI is freezing

R GUI is freezing and I must force quit the vast majority of the time it accesses “Choose File”.  This can be via File/Open Document, Misc/Choose Working Directory or file.choose().   read.csv(), stewed(), etc work fine.

I am running OS X Yosemite (10.10.1), R 3.1.3 GUI 1.65 Mavericks build (6913)

Below is the first page or so of crash report - 

This is pretty distracting. I have searched and searched for a solution.  I see a few posts online with folks reporting similar problems, but with no solutions.

Apologies in advance if I am not providing all of the information needed. 

Many thanks for any help you can lend - 

Regards, Chris
