[BioC] 'multtest' installation problem

[Kasper Daniel Hansen]

(After spending some time confusing this with some other error)

This is because the package includes the CFLAG flag "-lm" which tells  
the compiler to link against libm which apparently does not exists on  
your box. Now, to continue it will be helpful if you could  
cut'n'paste the compilation message you should get when you run  
biocLite. This may be due to the compiler you are using or whatever.
