Berend,

I now have  working packages, thanks!

The key was installing rJava from source rather than binary (binary being the 
default when using install.packages(); I had already run javareconf so there 
was no change there).

And apologies to everyone for failing to search hard enough to find the 
solution that was already available on R-sig-mac. As an aside, yes, my Java is 
indeed old, but my institution, for whatever reason, is not offering a more 
recent version in its software deployment system.
