[R] itanium

[Rob Dunne]

I am trying to compile R-1.6.1 on an itanium.

using either gcc 2.96 or gcc 3.0.4 nad either
the supplied Redhat blas libs or the supplied code (ie
wiht the --no-blas option) I get this error.

Has anyone who has compiled R for the itanium advise
me on the compilers versions and flags that they used?

				       thanks
