That seems to have done the trick for my case! Thanks! Details
included below include the svn revision number and the results of
configure.
If it helps any, the line I suggested adding (with an additional
library variable) is in the original configure.ac in the sf library.
I include that below the configure output at the end of the message,
in case it is of use or interest
I tried just now with
$ svn checkout svn://scm.r-forge.r-project.org/svnroot/rgdal/
A rgdal/pkg
....
A rgdal/old/old_0.6-28/man/closeDataset-methods.Rd
A rgdal/old/old_0.6-28/NAMESPACE
Checked out revision 1010.
and it builds without error.
