Hello, I installed the new release 0.65.0 of R on our local Solaris system. As I already (and sucessfully) installed the 0.64.0 and 0.64.1 version of R, I hadn't had any trouble during the installation. But as I've started R in order to see the demo I've got horizontal and vertical lines goint to the left and top of the X11 window at each tick (demo ("graphics")). This seems

...a good idea, being an old pre-release (gcc 2.8.1, real egcs-1.1.2 and gcc-2.95.1 have all been tried). This reported that calloc and finite are broken on Solaris 2.6, and they are not on other systems, so it seems more likely that the compiler is broken. If you find a system with HAVE_FINITE and FINITE_BROKEN defined, then R will not work correctly (unless it uses the AIX workaround). The fix I suggested to Ralf worked, and will probably be incorporated in 0.65.1 (unless we find a better one). Try replacing the line # define R_FINITE(x) ((x) != R_NaReal) in Arith.h by static int R_FINITE(...
