Upgrade through the R interface?

Hi.

I use a bash script 
[http://asaguiar.med.br/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=41] that 
checks for availability of upgrades and, if it is the case, downloads, 
compiles and install the newest R version. It could be run from within R. 
The exit values of interest are 100 (uptodate) and 0 (successful install). 
All other values are errors codes that correspond to the steps the script 
performs: system checks (1), download (2), decompression (3), configure (4), 
compilation (5), install (6).

The dowloadable version (url above) needs some minor configuration changes 
in variables.

Best wishes.
