Preamble: There is a dedicated R-Mac-SIG list where this would have been more appropriately directed. and followups should be directed there (and the R-help address removed so we do not have two simulatnaous threads.)

R.app version numbers are not in sync with R versions so that doesn't tell us what R.app you have.

I'm also running OSX 10.6.8, but R version 2.15.2 (2012-10-26) Platform:
x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0/x86_64 (64-bit). Looking at the Get Info panel for the
GUI I see I am also somewhat out-of-date: R.app GUI 1.53 (6335 Leopard build
64-bit).
I noticed that R 2.15.3 is now available. (I had been checking over the last
several days and this is the first time I noticed that it had appeared.)

Could there be another .Profile file? (They are invisible by default in the
MacOS using Finder.app.)
