The real problem is that the MacPorts R package has become broken with
regard to using ${prefix}/lib/R/library which clearly seen if you
execute...
% R

In fink, our R packages are built as frameworks but we have a symllink....
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 26 Nov 1 13:27 site-library ->
/sw/lib/R/3.1/site-library
in /sw/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources.
The proper fix would be to implement the same change in MacPorts'
R so that in the ${prefix}/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources
directory we likewise have a symlink called site-library pointing at
the legacy ${prefix}/lib/R/library directory that has been used here
in the past.
