problem compiling R-1.9.0beta with PGI compilers on amd64

Dear R-devel, I'm trying to compile R-1.9.0beta (2004-03-31) with the PGI compilers (15-day free evaluation: after the 15 days the binaries will stop working). I'm running into some problems, that I hope some can offer pointers. 1. After configure, the FLIBS include /usr/local/lib' --- note the extra '. I had to manually delete it in a couple of places. In a previous thread on compiling R with ifc/icc, Saikat wrote: === The problem is in the AC_F77_LIBRARY_LDFLAGS macro. It guesses the linker flags by passing a verbose option (-v for ifc) to the compiler. For ifc this produces a multiline output, one line continued to the next by a \ character. It also contains some " characters. These together produces the wrong results. We can fix this by removing all \ and " from the variable ac_f77_v_output in that macro. I am not sure if this breaks anything in other compilers. === Seems like this is related. 2. `make' ran fine, until I get: make[3]: Leaving directory `/u1/scratch/R-1.9.0/src/library/ts' installing parsed NAMESPACE files make[2]: *** [R] Error 139 make[2]: Leaving directory `/u1/scratch/R-1.9.0/src/library' make[1]: *** [R] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/u1/scratch/R-1.9.0/src' make: *** [R] Error 1 Does anyone know what might be causing this error? Also, if I then run `bin/R', I just get a segfault. Is this expected? (I thought not, since it's at the package building stage...)
2. is trying to run R, so that is the cause. You need to find out why R segfaults.
