 The R 2.6.2 port worked with no special effort with the Tk interface. The
 2.7 port does not work on my system.

 I have

 tk                             @8.5.2          x11/tk
 tcl                            @8.5.2          lang/tcl


 installed.

 I have also tried the other drivers that my {{{$ r --help}}} lists with
 similar results.

 On a similar note: why is --without-aqua a required option? What would it
 take to build a version that uses Quartz?

 Thank,
 -Mark
