[BioC] Problem compiling hexbin with gcc 4.0.2

[Kasper Daniel Hansen]

Is this on a mac? At least on a mac there are issues with gcc4 and  
the fortran compiler and that might still be the case for other  
systems as well. It is possible (I think) to get it working, but it is
not really recommended unless you have a specific need for gcc4. I  
assume that the rest of R and BioC have been compiled using gcc4?

Hmm, that was not much of a help.
