[R] problem compiling: alpha/linux: sqrttsu

[Matthew Wiener]

Hi, all.

In trying to compile R v.0.90 on an alpha running Red Hat Linux 6.0, I'm
getting the following error: 

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/mcw/alpha-R/R-0.90.0/src/appl' 
gcc -I. -I../include -I../../src/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -mieee -g -O2 -c cpoly.c
-o cpoly.o 
/tmp/ccPjZNwd.s: Assembler messages:

/tmp/ccPjZNwd.s:4516: Error: unknown opcode `sqrttsu' make[3]: ***
[cpoly.o] Error 1

No such files seem to exist in my /tmp directory, nor can I find them
elsewhere.  I can't find any files ending in .s, in fact.

I'm using make version 3.78.1, not the taboo 3.77, and egcs-2.91.66.

Anyone come across this before?

Note that:  1) we have not compiled any earlier version of R;
	    2) the configuration appears to go off without any problems;
	    3) an alpha rpm from cran installs OK, but won't let me
		compile libraries.  Here's an example with ctest:

> R INSTALL ctest_0.9-19.tar.gz 
Installing package `ctest' ... 
libs 
g77 -mieee -fPIC -O2 -c alnorm.f -o alnorm.o 
gcc -I/usr/lib/R/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -mieee -fPIC -O2 -c ansari.c -o
ansari.o 
gcc -I/usr/lib/R/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -mieee -fPIC -O2 -c
fexact.c -o fexact.o 
gcc -I/usr/lib/R/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -mieee -fPIC
-O2 -c kendall.c -o kendall.o 
/tmp/ccYUoygd.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccYUoygd.s:123: Error: unknown opcode `sqrttsu' 
/tmp/ccYUoygd.s:132: Error: unknown opcode `sqrttsu' 

make: *** [kendall.o] Error 1


Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
		Matt
