Have you setup flags so that the architectures match? The default in Xcode for
ML is 64-bit while the default for the Fortran is 32-bit (because that was the
default for Xcode at the time), so depending on which architecture you want to
compile you'll have to use either -arch x86_64 or -arch i386 (see the FAQ
for a quickstart guide to compiling R).
