[Rd] compile R with Portland Group compiler

regex.c is not our code, but from glibc.  Could you please try R-devel 
instead, which has a later version of glibc.  Since 2.1.1 is not longer 
part of the developement, we cannot help with that, but we can help wih 
R-devel.

I see the later regex.c does use prototypes.  But bitset is an integer 
type, so that may be a compiler error.

(It is on my list to try Intel and PG compilers on AMD64 as we have 
licences, but not very high priority.)

That's fine: it is not GNU C so it should give an error.
