R version 2.3.1 on MacIntel generates the following dyld returns 2 &  
cannot find function pointer errors.
These errors occur when I start up R (R GUI) version 2.3.1 for Mac OS  
X on my Intel Core2Duo iMac 24" system.
(new System Specs: Mac OS X 10.4.8 - iMac Intel Core2Duo 24" 2GB RAM  
500GB HD)

I also have an iMac PowerPC G4 and have R version 2.3.1 installed and  
working perfectly on that system - no error messages.
(old System Specs: Mac OSX 10.4.8 - iMac PowerPC G4 800MHz 15" LCD -  
768MB RAM - 160GB HD)

The basic error on the MacIntel system is a large set of some 20 long  
error messages.
These errror messages seem to indicate 2 types of failure:
(1) dyld returns 2 when trying to load [a plugin component]  - all  
seem to be Contextual Menu Items
(2) cannot find function pointer [to a plugin component] - again all  
related to Contextual Meny Items

How can Contextual Menu Items installed to enhance & facilitate the  
Mac OS X GUI affect R ?
These Menu items do not interfere with any other application on my  
MacIntel system.
