Hi,
I do not want to send only error messages from the DEC Alpha port of R, so
here is a success message:
I got R working with Digitals DXML (=digital extended math library,
which replaces BLAS functions)
The following patch generates a new configure script which accepts a
"--enable-dxml" option, to be used instead of
"--enable-blas".
Now it first searches for -ldxml befor searching for -lblas, so it should
work on other platforms too.
It seems to work: I tested it with the chol() function, which in turn
calls "ddot" as one of the blas functions.
