Um... any reason why you don't simply disable aqua? That file is only

Also, you can specify a compiler for Objective-C separately and the
manual advises you to do so (to specify Apple's clang).
Tried that, but I have to use an old version of clang that can't handle
the code. But --with-aqua=no was the solution.

Is it possible to configure and build an R without any graphics

I tried "--with-x=no --with-cairo=no --with-grDevices=no
--with-graphics=no"
Inventing flags does not help you: use configure --help to see what is
supported (as the manual says).
I have learnt that R manuals are frequently inaccurate or out of date.
So from the ./configure script:
Optional Packages:
--with-PACKAGE[=ARG] use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
which is why I tried --with-grDevices=no
Reading the manual is faster than posting (and posting Mac-specific Qs
to R-sig-mac is more likely to get an informed response).
I don't need this kind of grief. I hereby sign off from posting to this
list.
