Error in gfortran packaged with R binaries

Thanks for the response.
this is just a quick note from down under ;). If you're building R- devel, I'm recommending latest Xcode (2.4.1 or higher) + HPC fortran.
That is what I am now trying.
For a joyful 64-bit gfortran experience you'll need Apple's gcc driver which I have provided (see my 64-bit Intel announcement e- mail on this list earlier - it has the full description, I can't test it here) and you also want to lipo usr/local/lib/x86_64/ libgfortran.?.?.?.dylib into usr/local/lib, because that's where it really belongs.
I am trying to build a ppc64 version. I don't have a Core 2 Duo Mac :-(
Unfortunately HPC doesn't provide ppc64 target in the Intel gfortran which is a real pity, but we'll have to live with it... (for now)
It seems to have all the bits and will build a fortran hello world in ppc64 using -m64. However, the libraries are in /usr/local/lib/ ppc64 which seems to confuse the configure script and causes a failure in the attempt to link C and Fortran code. I will try to lipo the ppc64 libraries into the ppc ones in /usr/local/lib. Is that what you meant? Bill
