Thanks. Works with a previous version of texinfo.tex from Time Machine.
If you run tlmgr you'll see that CTAN now has the (broken) 2009-01-01
version, released by the FSF in 2009.

Brian,
See below. It hangs after typesetting p 21, so I gave a ^C. It's the
current R-devel from svn, OS X 10.5.6, and the current TeXLive-2008
from svn (i.e. from tlmgr).
The problem seems to be the version of texinfo.tex, which does not
seem to be the one from TexLive 2008. My MacTeX has
tystie% kpsewhich texinfo.tex
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/texinfo/texinfo.tex
\def\texinfoversion{2008-04-18.10}
and your log has
(./R-intro.texi (/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/texinfo/
texinfo.tex
Loading texinfo [version 2009-01-01.14]:
Note the date ... not in 2008. This would not be the first time
that a broken texinfo.tex has been released, but I don't see a
texinfo release since 4.13a on 2008-09-22. Please revert to a
released version.
Brian
