It is known that gcc 4.0.0 is buggy.  The current recommendation, from
Brian Ripley, is to use gcc 3.4.4 instead. We are awaiting the bug-fix
release gcc 4.0.1.

R compiled with the gcc 4.0.0 provided on FC4 does pass "make check-
all". My guess is that your locally compiled version does not have the
patches applied by Red Hat.
