makeconf issue on R-devel 2006-03-12 r37524

I sent the message below to r-sig-mac yesterday, but having no reply
I decided to explore a bit myself and found that editing:

/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.3/Resources/share/make/
shlib.mk

yzzy: diff shlib.mk shlib.mk~
3c3
< include $(R_HOME)/etc/Makeconf
---

include $(R_HOME)/etc${R_ARCH}/Makeconf

restored the functionality of R CMD INSTALL.

Is this a known issue?

Subject: makeconf issue on R-devel 2006-03-12 r37524

I've just installed R-devel   Version 2.3.0 Under development
(unstable) (2006-03-12 r37524)
on a G5 and things went smoothly despite my gfortran configuration,
(that is ./configure, make,
make install was fine), but now trying to install  a source package
I get:

yzzy: R CMD check kuantile

isn't there something fishy with the specification of the Makeconf
file in ..../etc/Frameworks???
