Compilation error on mgcv_1.1-7 on OS X (10.3)
I expect your version of R was not compiled on your own system, although you don't say (please see the posting guide). (I also presume this is a Macintosh but you could have said.) The solutions are simple: 1) Compile R yourself -- the best choice. 2) Download a pre-compiled binary of that package for your platform. 3) Install the same tools as used to build R in the same places. 4) (Perhaps) edit R_HOME/etc/Makeconf and replace the paths in FLIBS.

I run into a compilation error when updating to mgcv_1.1-7 in R 2.0.0 on OS X 10.3. Note that other pacakges have compiled nicely.
Packages containing Fortran source code?
Some details are given below, but in short it looks like it's seeking for /usr/local/lib/powerpc-apple-darwin6.8/3.4.2/ which I don't have. But I do have /usr/lib/gcc/darwin/3.3 i.e a lower version of GCC in a different directory. More details at end. I am sorry if this is very easy to configure, but as long as I am unable to do it I will be very grateful for any help.
