lme4 package for Mac not available

	Then, try _install.packages("lme4", type="source")_. If that doesn't
work for whatever reason, you can either wait for the binary to appear or
install an earlier version.

FWIW, R-Forge has binary packages for "lme4".  I've just installed mine from the command-line with

	install.packages("lme4", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org")

and at least basic lmer() calls seem to work fine.

Best,
