I am only reporting this because it is the current release branch and not devel.
R-2.13 from svn revision 55957 builds fine, but fails make check. This happened with a fresh svn checkout 12 hours ago and it still happens as of now. Two days ago I could build R-2.13 and it passed make check on the same system, so I doubt it is a system problem. But just in case my system details are a fresh install of OS X Snow Leopard (new machine) with Xcode 4 and Simon's gfortran and a number of his other libraries (readline, cairo, libpng, jpeg, pixman and some others).
