1.9.0 regression test on HP-UX (PR#6800)

Hi,

On behalf of one of our users, I installed R 1.8.1 on HP-UX11.0 by 
compiling the source using the gnu compilers and all was fine with

make check

On 1.9.0, I get an error from 'make check' when running reg-tests-1.R 
which gives error exit code 1.  Commands used are:

./configure --prefix=/apps/global/Gnu_R/R-1.9.0 --with-x 
R_BROWSER=mozilla

(all on one line, of course)

make
make check

I tried to get it to make with the HP-UX cc, aCC and f90 but couldn't 
get it to make (make came back with numerous unresolved symbols such 
as dtrsl), so I'm just using the gnu compilers. I guess that setting 
the loader search path would get round this, but for now at least the 
gnu compilers will be good enough.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

The crucial information is in tests/reg-tests-1.Rout.fail, at the bottom
(I expect).  Please do tell us what the failure was and we may be able to 
help.

Note that I have removed the bug repository from the followup: I don't see 
any evidence of an R bug here as yet.
