R is compiled using the

./configure --with-g77 --enable-blas_risc --enable-readline --with-x

for configuring.

I can't help noticing that you are configuring for a RISC optimized BLAS
library on an Intel x86 processor.  I have no idea if this is serious,
but it seems a bit odd.

Talking about that, is there an x86 optimized (for Linux and/or NT)
BLAS around somewhere?
