[Rd] alpha, portable use

[Paul Gilbert]

I am still confused about this (and it is still happening with R-beta).
Writing R Extensions suggests I need a Makefile or Makevars in my
package,  but that has not been the case previously.  Is there now a
requirement that all packages need Makefiles or Makevars if there is 
fortran to be compiled?  This is only happening on one of my systems. 
Building R and make check work fine on that system, but it seems that 
not all the information gets passed along to package compiles.

(BTW, this is just a warning, but Kurt suggested we try to eliminate 
warnings.)
