[Rd] R-devel/Linux x64/Sun Studio 12: Problem with Matrix

[Prof Brian Ripley]

This seems to be a problem with your OS installation. I have

gannet% file /lib64/libpthread.so.0
/lib64/libpthread.so.0: symbolic link to `libpthread-2.9.so'
gannet% file /lib64/libpthread-2.9.so
/lib64/libpthread-2.9.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, 
version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 
2.6.9, not stripped

gannet% rpm -q --whatprovides /lib64/libpthread-2.9.so
glibc-2.9-3.x86_64

and of course building (current) Matrix works for me.
