R-devel has the --with-lapack flag for configure. If you build R with --with-blas="-framework vecLib" --with-lapack="--framework vecLib" then the build goes through, using the native optimized BLAS and Lapack in /System/Library/Frameworks/vecLib.framework. Also, it works, in the sense that it does eigenvalue problems correctly.
I hope --with-blas="-framework vecLib" --with-lapack is all that is needed. --with-lapack searches the BLAS library for lapack routines.
