Well, what happens if you say library(tcltk) and demo(tkdensity) in the R running in Xterm ?
well, you already know the answer. This version of RAqua is built against AquaTclTk, so it won't work. But the x11() device will work fine. In this case two different versions of tcltk are competing X11 and AquaTclTk.
But what I meant is that the X11 (itself) part works fine. One can still configure Darwin R to use X11/TclTk.
I need to stress the fact that we are talking about two different aspects: distributed binaries and building options.
1. If the user downloads and installs RAqua is not because he wants to use X11 stuff inside RAqua! He probably doesn't know what X11 standa for!
2. If you, me, Don etc, want to use all the X11 stuff, using fink instead of other sources of prebuilt dlls, this is still possible...and surely none of us will try to mix things (aqua/x11)
What I don't understand from this thread is: is Don asking binaries for darwin/x11 or just asking for the possibility of continuing building Darwin R on his own and configure R in his preferred way? I think he is asking for the second alternative: in this case, this is still possible. Just don't configure with --with-aqua (who oblige us?) and specify X11/TclTk headers at config time, run it in xterm. Moreover, RAqua is built using a script inside src/modules/aqua which is not part of the make R procedure. So if you execute it is because you do want Aqua and not X11.
We can consider the possibility of distribute two versions of binaries: "a' la" "RAqua" and "a' la" Jan :)

To be more explicit: the RAqua I have built it is built to run under X11 as well, just execute it in an xterm window without specifying --gui-aqua. Nothing has changed!===
