R help - Mar 2004 - R_qsort_int_I() error

Hi,
   I want to use R_qsort_int_I() in my C function, but getting the 
following error. It looks like there is a conflict between Rmath.h, 
which I use to generate random numbers, and R_ext/Boolean.h I would 
appreciate any help to fix this problem.

gcc -ansi -g -o Gibbs gibbs.c subroutines.o rand.o vector.o -lm -lRmath 
-llapack -lblas -lfrtbegin -lg2c -lm -shared-libgcc
In file included from /usr/include/R_ext/Utils.h:27,
                  from gibbs.c:7:
/usr/include/R_ext/Boolean.h:29: conflicting types for `FALSE'
/usr/include/Rmath.h:175: previous declaration of `FALSE'
/usr/include/R_ext/Boolean.h:29: conflicting types for `TRUE'
/usr/include/Rmath.h:175: previous declaration of `TRUE'
/usr/include/R_ext/Boolean.h:29: confused by earlier errors, bailing out
make: *** [Gibbs] Error 1

Thanks,
Kosuke

Do look at the code: Rmath.h contains

#ifdef MATHLIB_STANDALONE
 typedef enum { FALSE = 0, TRUE } Rboolean;
#else
# include <R_ext/Boolean.h>

/* for API back-compatibility -- DEPRECATED since R 1.2 -- */
#define LTRUE  TRUE
#define LFALSE FALSE
#endif

Is this code to be linked into R?  If so you should not be defining
MATHLIB_STANDALONE: if not, you should not be using R_ext/Utils.h.

PLEASE do, and don't use misleading subject lines.
