[R] Build Error on Solaris

[Prof Brian Ripley]

Please do read the posting guide:

1) It says this is not the list for problems about compiled code.

2) It asks you to try the current patched version before posting.
(That works for me.)

If that is not the solution, the problem is in the lines before the 
one you showed us, e.g. I get

checking whether cc -xc99 accepts -Wno-long-long... no

(which incidentally points out that you omitted -xc99 from the 
recommendations). So you will have to be more careful in showing the 
relevant output if you follow up on R-devel.
