I think Tim needs to read the available FAQs on CRAN, and read:

http://r.research.att.com/tools/

giving the recipes for setting up an OSX system for building R packages. 
It isn't hard, one just needs to folloow the instructions and *never* 
assume anything unless one knows more about OSX variants than the 
maintainer. I think that the underlying GRASS install is broken too 
(probably PATH problems) wrt. GDAL.
