[R] installation error

[Prof Brian D Ripley]

Don't use gcc compiled for Solaris 2.5.1 on Solaris 2.6.  We've seen this
before a couple of times, and that was the error.

Also, gcc-2.7.2.3 is ancient.  I suggest getting 2.95.3 (or 3.0 if you use
.0 releases: it works for me) for 2,6, or compiling it from source.
