Dear all,

After upgrading my MacBook Pro to OS X lion, I find that I'm unable to check or 
install the Rcmdr package, getting the following error:

---------- snip ---------

John-Foxs-MacBook-Pro:workspace jfox$ R CMD INSTALL Rcmdr
* installing to library 
‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.13/Resources/library’
* installing *source* package ‘Rcmdr’ ...
** libs
*** arch - i386
sh: make: command not found
ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘Rcmdr’
* removing 
‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.13/Resources/library/Rcmdr’
* restoring previous 
‘/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.13/Resources/library/Rcmdr’

---------- snip ---------

I am able to install from source other packages that don't have any compiled 
code, and so I hypothesize that this is due to some C code in the Rcmdr 
package. The Rcmdr installs fine on my Windows system and is built without 
error on R-Forge. As well, I was able to install the package from source before 
the OS upgrade.

I've installed the current development version of R 2.13.2, gfortran 4.2.3 
(probably not relevant because there's no fortran code in the package), and 
Xcode for lion from the Apple app store.

Here are some more details of my system:
