[R] Binaries no longer compiled for RH EL4, i386?

The maintainer of the RHEL RPMs no longer has an i386 machine running
EL4, and cross-building on an x86_64 machine did not work, so I did not
distribute them.

As noted in a previous thread, there is a project to port the Fedora R
RPMs to Enterprise Linux:

RPMs for R 2.9.0 have been built but not pushed yet.

In the future I will put the EPEL RPMs on CRAN so that they are
compatible with the Fedora RPMs.
