I cannot reproduce a crash from within the experimental 64 bit GUI in
Leapard using any of that input.
I am copying the R-SIG-Mac list which I think is the appropriate venue.
You say you are using OS X 10.5.6 but your R.version info says it is a
Tiger 10.4.11.1 system. Looking at the CRAN package check page I see
that the CRAN build is done on an OS X 10.4.10 machine, which is only
off my one from the 8.11.1 designation, so maybe someone forgot to
update that entry when they updated that machine.
(Your version is even older than mine, so you might try updating.)

If I run exactly the same on a Mac (OS X 10.5.6), it still works
provided R is run in a Terminal window.
The outcome changes if R is run in "its own window", started by
clicking
on its icon; the first two examples are still Ok, the third one
produces:
*** caught segfault ***
address 0x4628c854, cause 'memory not mapped'
