Recently I reviewed my RPM spec files for DU 4.0, and noticed that I
forgot to post some problems + patches:

1. ./configure fails to choose a PIC flag, I simply removed the
AC_MSG_ERROR and it works. There is actually no PIC flag for DEC cc (with
DU 4.0E)

May be some autoconf expert could provide an solution like
if arch!=alpha then AC_MSG_ERROR ?

1.a depending does not work, I added some lines to Makeconf.in:
My automake is automake-1.4

2. aclocal.m4 has many wrong C preprocessor directives "#define"s and
"#include"s with "#" not in column 1 (DEC cc wants it there) 

That means
 
       #define SOMETHING

does not work, but 

#define SOMETHING 

or (for indenting together with neighbour lines)

#       define SOMETHING

works.

Here is the patch:

3. multiple declaration of mkString, const char* did not work:
cc: Error: ../../../R/src/main/gram.y, line 1365: In this declaration,
parameter 1 has a different type than specified in an earlier declaration
of this function. (mismatparam)
SEXP mkString(const char *s)

Also another "#" not in column 1.

One solution is the following, but I'm not sure if the move from const
char* to char* breaks something. I also don't know why const char* did not
work.
