[Rd] Build R on Haiku

[Joe S]

Hi R-devel,
I'm trying to get R 3.2.1 working on Haiku (an open source OS inspired by
BeOS, not Linux based) on i586. With a few small changes to library paths
and ifdefs I am able to get a seemingly working R binary. The build process
stops with the 'tools' package. The last lines from make are below.

Does anyone have any tips? I'm rather new to debugging at this low level.

Are there any checks I can do to the R binary to test if it works properly?

Cheers
Joe
