[MacPorts] #46857: update rNMR to 1.1.8 using new xvfb-run port and xvfb subport as well as return to ${prefix}/lib/R/library

[Russell Jones]

Is X11 only used for rendering graphics? If so
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13067751/how-to-run-r-scripts-on-servers-without-x11
suggests using
options(bitmapType='cairo')
Could this be set in a config file, in an env var or as a CL parameter 
during build?
