Make sure you have your environment variable LDFLAGS set to "-L/usr/ 
lib", otherwise I believe the linker doesn't look there.

You can check where R looks in the Makeconf file, under LDFLAGS.

Not too sure though - just slogged through building on a brand new  
Solaris box, and that was my problem. I am sure there are others who  
know FAR more than I.

Solaris 8.
Those are _additional_ places.
Note that Dominic Senn had already replied to say this problem was solved:
