[R] With which version of XFree86 can R compile?

[A.J. Rossini]

It isn't clear that R is currently friendly to the new XFree 4.4
license.  I believe that there is an advertising clause for linking --
does anyone know if this has been addressed or clarified?  I've not
been following those issues for a few months.

best,
