"They" might not have had enough information to go on (and r-devel had 
been a better target). Things like OS and computer versions. (I can't 
seem to find the earlier report though).

Looks like you have broken lapack libraries, so you may want to upgrade 
them or override the selection made during the configure phase.

Make sure to read
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html
and in particular Appendix A3 which discusses some of these issues.
