[Rd] Problem building R 2.10 release

Hi, 

I am having problem building R 2.10, and it does not seem anyone else is
having a similar problem...

My system information:
uname -m = x86_64
uname -r = 2.6.31-ARCH
uname -s = Linux

gcc (GCC) 4.4.1
icc (ICC) 11.0 20081105


The first problem I encounter seems to be with icc and wctype.h during
./configure.

export CC="icc -std=c99"
export CXX=icpc
export OBJC="icc -std=c99"
export FC=ifort
export CFLAGS="-mssse3 -g -O3 -wd188 -ip"
export CXXFLAGS="-mssse3 -g -O3 -no-gcc"
export OBJCFLAGS=-"-mssse3 -g -O3"
export FCFLAGS="-mssse3 -g -O3 -mp"

./configure --with-system-zlib --with-system-bzlib --with-system-pcre
--with-blas=/usr/local/lib/libgoto_penrynp-r1.26.so
--with-lapack=/usr/local/lib/liblapack.so
--with-readline=/usr/lib/libreadline.so --with-jpeglib=/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.7

The error:

wctype.h appears to be usable when I declare
export CC=gcc

However, I encountered another problem during make. I think it is because I
built the lapack libraries using intel compilers.

I had been able to compile R 2.9.1 using icc. There did not appear to be an
issue with wctype.h back then.

Is there any way for me to compile  R 2.10 using icc? There are other
programs on the lapack libraries I built with icc.

Thanks,
