Works fine for me on 10.14.5, both with CRAN-supplied 3.6.0 and locally compiled 3.6.0 Patched (2019-06-23 r76734).
I suspect that you might have a font misconfiguration of sorts on your Mojave machine.

A question about this to R-Devel generated replies from Peter Langfelder and David Winsemius, who noted that it worked fine under Ubuntu 18.04 (supposedly with R 3.15.2 -- probably R 3.5.2, but I'm not sure).

My Mac hardware is considered well past (Apple) end of life despite its functionality, so I cannot upgrade my OS. I'm attaching the file that is the result so Spencer can view it, although I suspect it will be scrubbed by the mail-server.
