First step to check: update to a released version of R 2.10.0!

If that does not help, using options(useFancyQuotes = TRUE) in the 
released version should (but possibly not as far back as your alpha 
pre-release).

I suspect that whatever you mean my 'my X11 window' (it is the 
application running in the window that matters, perhaps an xterm?) it 
is set to the wrong character set.  I simply use a Mac terminal 
window, and that ought to default to UTF-8 (but it can be changed, so 
check if you try one).
