Is this still RedHat 6.0? Have you considered an upgrade? I wouldn't be too surprised if e.g. glibc had an error affecting dynamic loading in that particular version.
With regard to Martyn Plummer's recent posting (thanks 2 Martyn 4 this), I just updated to gcc 2.96-69 and glibc 2.2-9 from Red Hat, but I run exactly into the same error messages. What's strange is that the make check works without any problems! Moreover, I get plenty of warning: nothing can be pasted after this token
Those are just warnings. I am convinced that the R code was right (according to C99 at least) but I don't think the gcc maintainers have been. Could you please try R-patched. This has a workaround for this, and as 1.2.1 is due next week, we would be happy to know if the warnings go away. Also, you will get a better R using R-patched. [...]
