Subject: R crashed on Mips64 on executing library for certain package

Hi All,

I was trying to get R cross-compiled for Mips64. The build system architecture I used is x86-64 while the system architecture to which R is cross-compiled to is Mips64
The below are the details of the mips64 system where I am running R

~ # uname -a
Linux (none) 2.6.32.27-Cavium-Octeon #3 SMP Tue Jun 14 11:06:49 PDT 2016 mips64 GNU/Linux

My requirement was to run few ARIMA models on the mips64 system. So, I decided to use the forecast package which had dependencies on several other packages. So, I cross-compiled all the required packages along with the R-base. But when I try to load "timeDate" package, R crashes. Below is the output. If you see below output, several other packages are getting successfully loaded. What I also found was timeDate package took long time to load and eventually crashed. So, I thought timeout could be an issue and tried to change timeout value using options(timeout = 300). Still R crashed and I am pretty sure timeout is not the issue as R crashed within a minute.
I am clueless as to how to debug this issue. Any insights would really help. Thanks in advance.

Creating a generic function for 'sample' from package 'base' in package 'timeDate'
Killed

Thanks
