Thanks, I'm glad this has a logical and easy explanation!
I assume the nightly build you refer to is located here: http://r.research.att.com/
, would it suffice to upgrade the R.app or is the quartz thing part of
the heavy R dmg file? Two days ago I tried to install R from source
and it failed for some (obscure to me) reason, so I hope it's not
required to fix this.
Many thanks,
baptiste

Me culpa - it's a bug in Quartz code that uses bitmap rendering
(i.e. on-screen and bitmap formats) which splits lines to segments
for faster rendering and produces a gap between such segments. It
should be fixed in tonight's nightlies.
Thanks,
Simon

Dear all,
I've just installed R on a new MacBook Pro, and I'm facing the
following issue: continuous lines in some graphs appear with a
discontinuity when I use the quartz or png() device. I really
don't think it comes from this specific code as the pdf() output
is fine, and so is the output on other machines. I have no clue
where the problem is, I can't nail down what triggers it (I
haven't been able yet to create a minimal example, sadly). The
screenshot attached shows the result of the pdf() device vs the
default quartz() device, note the broken lines in the middle of
the right side graph.
Has anybody faced a similar glitch before?
Many thanks,
baptiste
