[R] compiling gap on mac os x

[Prof Brian Ripley]

Isn't this the age-old story of the MacOS X Fortran compiler not fully 
supporting compilation for dynamic libraries?  Looks like the same
sort of problem it has with LAPACK code.  You could try rewriting the code 
to avoid DATA statements.

Asking MacOS-specific questions on the r-sig-mac is a better idea than 
using a general list.
