[Rd] Install R 2.0 package on R 1.9.1

[Paul English]

Hi,
 	I'm wondering if it is possible to install a package for R 2.0 on 
R 1.9.1 on Mac OS X? I'm getting this error which seems to be known issue:

library("quantreg")
Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) :
         couldn't find function "lazyLoad"
In addition: Warning message:
package quantreg was built under R version 2.0.1
Error in library("quantreg") : .First.lib failed

However, on CRAN, the Mac OS X "1.9" directory is just a symlink to the 
Mac OS X "2.0" directory - there is no separate directory for 1.9 packages as best I can 
tell.

I did also try building the source package, but that failed. I emailed the 
packager asking for help, but it can't hurt to ask here as well. The 
problem is that the package build can't find -lfrtbegin. On Mac OS X this 
comes from fink so it is installed in /sw. So I untarred the package and 
edited Makevars to tell the build to look at -L/sw/lib, but interestingly 
enough that only worked for one gcc line, and not the final linking stage. 
As you can see below, the final linking stage is also looking for 
/usr/local/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin6.6/3.4 which doesn't exist. I'm 
not sure where it is getting that from. I can only guess that autoconf or 
something is messed up on this machine:
