>From the output below, I think that we know too little about the system to 
call. What does sessionInfo() say inside R? Secondly, why is your 
./configure the way it is? Did you make install R itself - it looks as 
though the R shared objects are not being found. If gstat doesn't install, 
I'm surprised that rgdal did.
