rgl attempts on OS X to build both X11 and 'Carbon' versions. You can
inhibit the latter by
R CMD INSTALL --configure-args='--disable-carbon' .../rgl_0.81.tar.gz
The X11 version does work -- had you not tried that?
A native Mac OS X version will be a lot more work, so to encourage
people you will need to explain what is not enough in the X11 version.

Looking through the archives, I see that the developers of rgl don't have

I now have a 64-bit Mac (10.5.6), and probably the abilities. If you could
collect together the relevant posts, I will endeavour to take a look (unless
Simon has already got there). Please post a follow-up posting for future
reference, and include the rgl maintainers (who I suspect do not read
R-sig-mac).
Thanks,
