[R-SIG-Mac] EXT: Continuous loop when using R on MacOS Sierra with 3.4.4 GUI 1.70 El Capitan build (7507)

[Gero, Eric (GE Digital)]

I have the exact same problem.  It works fine on my Mac at home, but scrolls the same error message on my MacBook Pro from work.  RStudio does work fine though. 

Thank you, 
Eric

It makes R unusable because any output I produce from any R commands just gets lost amongst the continuous stream of red messages. There's no clue at the top of the console - it just looks like this:
