hello again, "answering" my own mail to keep it in this thread:
first, I forgot to mention the version: 2.7.0. but anyway, I now updated R to 2.7.1 and the problem went away. nevertheless if someone would explain the cryptic error message (for me, that is) concerning directory "@TCL_IN_FRAMEWORK@" that would be nice. now the only strange thing remaining is that the R-2.7.1 disk image downloaded a few minutes ago installs `R.2.7.0.framework' which contains R version 2.7.1.
