Please try the R-patched.version of R (see the posting guide or the FAQ).

That seems to be about an error in the R 2.8.0 sources that was corrected 
in October, and only happens if you do not ask for X11 support (which most 
R users need, including it seems all the pre-release testers).

Hi,

i'm trying to compile R on a Cray XT3 using pgi/7.2.1 - CNL (compute node 
linux)
The R version is 2.8.0

this is the option
-enable-R-static-lib=yes
--disable-R-shlib

/* The latter is the default */

CPICFLAGS=fpic
FPICFLAGS=fpic
CXXPICFLAGS=fpic
SHLIB_LDFLAGS=shared
--with-x=no
SHLIB_CXXLDFLAGS=shared
--disable-BLAS-shlib

Do you really need to set all these?  And are you sure you know the correct 
values?  ('-shared' is standard on Linux.)

CFLAGS="-g -O2 -Kieee"
FFLAGS="-g -O2 -Kieee"
CXXFLAGS="-g -O2 -Kieee"
FCFLAGS="-g -O2 -Kieee"
CC=cc
