[R] Package Installer Fails in OSX 10.5 Leopard

[Don Kalar]

Mark,

Thanks for your suggestions - I was able to install R by running each
of the individual packages that would be installed by R.mpkg, so it
seems to be a trivial fix. I haven't tested R exhaustively yet, but
the few scripts I've tried seem to run correctly.

cheers,

-d
