Dear R-help, I have encountered some errors when trying to compile R-1.3.1 from source on my WinNT4SP6 laptop (PII w/128MB RAM). I have installed all the tools following the instruction in src/gnuwin32/INSTALL, with the exception that the mingw compiler I have might be a bit older (they are the ones recommended for R-1.3.0, I believe).
