Could I ask you to investigate with the powers-that-be concerning OS X and
report back?  

I do not have such a machine, and can only state that

   a) CRAN seems to be doing ok with the package per 
      http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_RcppExamples.html

   b) R-Forge seems to be doing ok as well per the package page, here is the
      OS X build log:
      http://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=155&log=build_mac&pkg=RcppExamples&flavor=patched

Sorry for your troubles, but there is nothing more I can do without a
Mac. Maybe some others can pipe in.
