Hi, I'm having an issue building R successfully on a Cray XT system. If
you can suggest a solution, I would be very appreciative.

Am building with gcc 4.4 module installed.
configure cmd:
  ./configure --prefix=<cut> CC=cc CXX=CC FC=ftn F77=ftn F90=ftn
--without-x --without-blas --without-lapack --disable-shared
--disable-R-profiling

I've omitted the last 2 options w/out any change in the issues.

So here's what I'm coming up with:
While the base packages are being built, I get a dynamic load error:

    make[6]: Entering directory `<cut>/R-2.12.1/src/library/tools/src'
    ../../../../library/tools/libs/tools.so is unchanged
    make[6]: Leaving directory `<cut>/R-2.12.1/src/library/tools/src'
    make[5]: Leaving directory `<cut>/R-2.12.1/src/library/tools/src'
    make[4]: Leaving directory `<cut>/R-2.12.1/src/library/tools'
    Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
    unable to load shared object
'<cut>/R-2.12.1/library/tools/libs/tools.so':
    <cut>/R-2.12.1/library/tools/libs/tools.so: undefined symbol: R_NaString
    Calls: ::: ... tryCatch -> tryCatchList -> tryCatchOne -> <Anonymous>
    Execution halted
    make[3]: *** [all] Error 1

There is a file "library/tools/libs/tools.so".

Any ideas as to the cause?
