[R-SIG-Mac] libtool issue with shlib for R; very latest R-devel on ppc 10.4.7

My optimistic take on this now appears somewhat premature.  While it is
true that R-devel built using xcode 2.4 I'm still having trouble making
some packages from source, e.g. Matrix and quantreg,   The former
dies after considerable compilation effort:

ld: warning can't open dynamic library: libR.dylib referenced from: / 
Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/lib/libRlapack.dylib  
(checking for undefined symbols may be affected) (No such file or  
directory, errno = 2)
ld: Undefined symbols:
_xerbla_ referenced from libRlapack expected to be defined in libR.dylib
/usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed
make: *** [Matrix.so] Error 1
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'Matrix'

and the  latter (as reported yesterday on the R-devel group) with
many messages about multiply defined symbols.

Any suggestions would be very welcome.
