[Rd] Failed make (PR#7978)

[kent@d89h102.public.uconn.edu]

I downloaded R v2.1.1 earlier this morning to compile under Fedora Core 4. 
It compiled without incident, but 'make check' failed. Below is the relevant
part of its report. Is this a known problem? 

I used a locally compiled version of GCC v4.0.0 that reports

[kent at d89h102 R-2.1.1]$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../gcc-4.0.0/configure --enable-languages=c,c++,f95,java
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.0.0
[kent at d89h102 R-2.1.1]$
