Dear R People:


I am trying to build R-2.5.0 from source on a Windows machinee.

I downloaded the tools and such, and started things off.

I received some odd errors messages, looked on the R Search
and found a similar problem.  The suggestion was to re-load
"ld.exe".

I downloaded and installed everything again.  Same problem.

I am including my output.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.  Yes, I know that I
should just use the binaries.  Other than that one, please.

thanks,
