Hey everyone,

I normally install R from http://r.research.att.com/, but on my fresh
install of Mac OS X, I thought I'd give the MacPorts version a try. No
compelling reason for the switch. Just figured it might consolidate my
software updates and I'm not a huge fan of the OS X GUI in any case.
Anyway, I'm having issues installing. It seems like R itself builds,
but when installing the recommended package MASS, there's an error
opening a connection somewhere. I've attached the build log. Here are
the last few lines from the terminal:

begin installing recommended package lattice
