[R] R and glibc-2.1.1

[Robert Burrows]

Hello,

I recently upgraded my glibc from 2.0.7 to 2.1.1 and now I cannot get R to
start. I get

	R : Copyright 1999, The R Development Core Team
	Version 0.64.1  (May 8, 1999)

	Type	"q()" to quit R.
	
	Segmentation fault (core dumped)

  Core was generated by `/usr/local/lib/R/bin/R.binary'.
  Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

This is with RedHat 5.1, kernel 2.2.1. I got glibc-2.1.1 from the GNU web
site and compiled it myself, then recompiled and installed R.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

TIA,
