There are actually over 500 packages that do not have a mavericks build.
Maybe send some auto generated emails to maintainers?

mav <- read.dcf(url("
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/mavericks/contrib/3.1/PACKAGES"))
osx <- read.dcf(url("
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/contrib/3.1/PACKAGES"))
mav <- as.data.frame(mav, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
osx <- as.data.frame(osx, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
mav$Package[!(mav$Package %in% osx$Package)]
osx$Package[!(osx$Package %in% mav$Package)]
