Matthew, Liu
first sorry for the delay in answering, but I was buried in an important
project.
I can offer you a solution that was actually found by one of our customers,
Tobias Reber from DKFZ (German Cancer Research Center).
I am appending a patch (generated by cvs diff -c ...) that I applied to R
v1.6.2.
Then I typed the following two commands.
OBJECT_MODE=64 \
MAKE=gmake \
CC="cc -DSTDC" \
CXX="xlC" \
MAIN_LDFLAGS="-Wl,-brtl" \
SHLIB_LDFLAGS="-Wl,-G" \
F77="xlf" \
./configure \
--without-x \
--without-blas
OBJECT_MODE=64 gmake
After this I tested with "gmake check" and found no errors.
I have just retried the above on the following setup.
h/w p690+ 1.7GHz

I copied the r-help mailing list, but I am not sure whether I can post there.
Could you please post this if you don't see it posted ? Thanks.
