error trying to exec 'f951': execvp: No such file or directory

Thanks.  I did indeed update to Xcode 5.0.  So do I perhaps need to go back
to an earlier version of Xcode?  Installing the April 16 Mountain Lion command 
line tools for Xcode, as suggested by Robert Bruggner, still gives the error
message.

I installed 
  gfortran-4.2.3.dmg (ca. 27MB, GNU Fortran 4.2.3 release)
from http://r.research.att.com/tools/

Consistently with this, I find:

<<<
jhm-air:dm johnm1$ gfortran --version
GNU Fortran (GCC) 4.2.3
jhm-air:dm johnm1$ which gfortran
/usr/local/bin/gfortran

I do not then understand the reference to 4.2.1.  

[I did note however Simon's message of April 13 2013, albeit with respect to the Apple gcc branch 
  for version 4.2.4? 

  <<<
  This is what the Apple gcc branch reports, because that's what the gcc driver is build from (Apple's gcc 4.2.1 build 5666.3), but the Fortran sources that have been added into that branch are from GNU Fortran     4.2.4 (see the page that you downloaded it from - it has the details).
  >>>
  Here "This" is 4.2.1

You have your compilers set up incorrectly.

I have Xcode 5.0 and the CLI installed.

llvm-gcc-4.2 is not part of Xcode 5.  Did you perchance update to Xcode 5: that removes some things?

Any advice on what do I need to do to make f951 available?

Install the supported gfortran (which is 4.2.3 not 4.2.1): see the R-admin manual.

Also, installing r-devel has the result that after switching back to R-3.0.2 patched,
it crashes upon starting.  The issue seems to be with the GUI, as there seems to
be no problem from the command line.  I will forward details if that seems useful.

The R.app front-end (which you most likely mean by 'it' but did not say) is tied to a particular version of R, and this is documented in the R-admin manual.  You most likely need to re-install the earlier version.
