Hello,
I've recently installed R (version 2.9.0) on my Mac OS (Leopard). I'm
using the Mac R.app application. Upon start up this works fine,
however if I try to load several packages the application simply hangs
(even after leaving it alone for an hour).

I was under the same impression when I first installed and started to use R
for Mac. However, the system believes that R it's hung, but in reality it's
not. You just have to be patient. Sometimes installation requires download
of several tens of Mb of source/binary packages. Try with a tiny one from
the command line, using biocLite(), for example. You should see R back to
response soon.

So, a couple things to check:
From the force-quit monitor (cmd-option-escape), does your mac identify
R as "not responding"?
Have you downloaded the packages so you can install from your local
directory?
