I think that is wrong: there is no locale called 'UTF-8' in standard 
naming schemes.  I have
[1] C/en_GB.UTF-8/en_GB.UTF-8/C/en_GB.UTF-8/en_GB.UTF-8

See the 'R Installation and Administration Manual' (and please keep 
R-sig-mac on the reply list).

Hello Brian,

I "followed" the admin manual, and set the lines in the .bashrc
# Setting for the new UTF-8 terminal support in Lion
export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

this solves the locale (and R font problem):
R version 2.14.1 (2011-12-22)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0/x86_64 (64-bit)

locale:
[1] en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8

Thank you again.
Emilio
