am I right that you suggest patching configure.in (and hence 'configure')?

This may be THE solution, really.

I've been using  f77 on Solaris 2.5.1 ( = SunOS 5.5.1)  for a while,
and in newer versions of R,
all was fine when I had
---------------------------------------
FPICFLAGS=-Kpic
---------------------------------------

in the RHOME/config.site  file.

Um, does it work on ALL f77's on Solaris (f2c/gcc, g77, Sun f77)?

(I'm at a conference in Norway at the moment, so it's awkward for me
to check)
