[R-SIG-Mac] loading tkrplot causes a segfault

[Dan Tenenbaum]

Hi,

loading the tkrplot package (version 0.0-23) causes a segfault. This only seems to happen on Mavericks, not Snow Leopard, Linux, or Windows. 

> library(tkrplot)
Loading required package: tcltk

 *** caught segfault ***
address 0x998, cause 'memory not mapped'

Traceback:

19: try({    ns <- loadNamespace(package, c(which.lib.loc, lib.loc))    env <- attachNamespace(ns, pos = pos, deps)})
20: library(tkrplot)

Possible actions:
1: abort (with core dump, if enabled)
2: normal R exit
3: exit R without saving workspace
4: exit R saving workspace

Any ideas?
