Which one? Distrib./compiler set? Given the number of Linux systems among the core developers, it seems rather unlikely that R-patched would be broken on all all of them without anyone noticing... It does build OK for me.
Submission from: (NULL) (147.126.192.93) R-1.4.1 failed to finish compiling building package `methods', as seen in output from make below. ============================================================================ dumping R code in package `methods' Error: syntax error: evaluating expression 0 Execution halted
...
When I examined things further, it became clear problem was in new R.bin file, since after exporting the proper value for R_HOME, running just R.bin by itself caused the same "evaluating expression 0" error, as seen below. ========================================================================
...
Type `q()' to quit R. Error: syntax error: evaluating expression 0 Error: syntax error: evaluating expression 0
This happened even if run with --vanilla. Interestingly, removing the Rprofile file removed one of the two "Error: syntax error:..." messages.
This could come from a corrupted base package. You'd have to track it down a bit further though. Binary search on the library/base/R/base file is a possibility. Or you might try sourcing the file with echo=T. Are you sure you are doing a clean build? Delete config.cache, make clean, etc.
