Neither of these options appears to have any effect under Mac OSX.
I run R from the command line from a terminal window (not from the GUI)
and I have X11 installed so that in R

does indeed put up a graphics window. But it always puts it (the
initial
window) in exactly the same place, irrespective of my having put the
specified line in ~/.Xresources before starting R, or having issued the
specified options() command immediately after having started R (before
issuing the x11() command).
It's no big deal --- I'm reasonably happy with the default position
of the
window. I just hate it when a computer refuses to follow
instructions, with
no explanation. :-(
