Compiling R without X?

Thanks a lot! Now R works fine. There was only one little problem: In 
the src/unix/Makefile target "DLLs" the code inside the if/fi is 
executed even if R_GUIS is empty. I know enough about makefiles to 
find the problem and fix it temporarily by deleting the whole if/fi 
but I don't know how the correct if-clause would be.

Get the R-devel snapshot from CRAN and use that. AFAIK it is the only
version in which

configure --without-x
make

works.
