Frank Harrell suggested I re-post with information about the version of  
R

Heres's the information:
> >  version
>          _
> platform powerpc-apple-darwin6.8
> arch     powerpc
> os       darwin6.8
> system   powerpc, darwin6.8
> status
> major    2
> minor    0.1
> year     2004
> month    11
> day      15
> language R

Here's what happens when I try to install:
> >  install.packages("Hmisc")
> trying URL `http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES'
> Content type `text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1' length 47565 bytes

Here's what the Console had to say:
> * Installing *source* package 'Hmisc' ...
> ** libs
> g77   -fno-common  -g -O2 -c cidxcn.f -o cidxcn.o
