[R-SIG-Mac] compiling packages for 64 bit architecture

[Christophe Dutang]

Thanks for the tips, it works now.

Since randtoolbox depends on rngWELL, which also has a configure file,  
I need to the following to compile randtoolbox for both architectures:
- for i386,
	- rm *.o  in rngWELL/src
	- R --arch=i386 CMD INSTALL --libs-only rngWELL
	- rm *.o  in randtoolbox/src
	- R --arch=i386 CMD INSTALL --libs-only randtoolbox
- for x86_64,
	- rm *.o  in rngWELL/src
	- R --arch=x86_64 CMD INSTALL --libs-only rngWELL
	- rm *.o  in randtoolbox/src
	- R --arch= x86_64 CMD INSTALL --libs-only randtoolbox

If I want to avoid to manually remove object files in src directory,  
can I use a makefile in this directory?

Do you advise me to install packages in a different directory than  
R_HOME/library using -l option?

Thanks in advance

Christophe
