I still get the crash. I tried to recreate your commands on my machine
(macOS Monterey, Version 12.0.1). Here is a summary; further details are
below.
1. Installing from CRAN downloaded file Rmpfr_0.8-7.tar.gz failed, see
further details.
2. Therefore I had to instal the binary file from CRAN, see further details.
3. Loaded library(Rmpfr), see further details
4. Ran the two commands at the RStudio console:
x <- mpfr(-50, 2000)
y <- mpfr(-50.1, 2000)
This caused a crash.
5. Restarted my system and ran:
version

platform x86_64-apple-darwin17.0
arch x86_64
os darwin17.0
system x86_64, darwin17.0
