Hi ! 

I have recently updated my OS to Maverick and from this moment, I have been unable to compile any packages (with or without C code in them). However, I can install source package on my machine without any problem. In other words, the command line 

R CMD INSTALL pkg

works perfectly fine, where as the command line 

R CMD INSTALL --build pkg

sends me the following insults after trying to compile any package (here for the package spacemakeR):

* installing to library ‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.0/Resources/library’
* installing *source* package ‘spacemakeR’ ...
** R

** preparing package for lazy loading

** testing if installed package can be loaded

Note that I have carefully followed advices posted on this list and I have install XQuartz, XCode 5.0.2 and XCode command line tools and made following modifications to the ~/.R/Makevars file:

CC=clang
CXX=clang++
CFLAGS="-mtune=native -g -O2 -Wall -pedantic -Wconversion"
CXXFLAGS="-mtune=native -g -O2 -Wall -pedantic -Wconversion"

Any ideas what is causing this problem ?

Thanks in advance for all the help !

P.S.: I almost forgot, I am working with R 3.0.2
