R-1.6.2beta_2002-12-20: build problems

[Nelson H. F. Beebe]

While builds and validations of R-1.6.2beta_2002-12-20 were
successful on several systems, there were a few failures:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apple Darwin 6.2 (MacOS 10.2.2) with gcc-3.2.1:

gcc -dynamiclib -flat_namespace -undefined suppress -o
.libs/libgslcblas.0.0.0.dylib  sasum.lo saxpy.lo ... isamax.lo izamax.lo xerbla.lo  -lc -install_name  /usr/local/lib/libgslcblas.0.dylib -compatibility_version 1 -current_version 1.0
gcc: suppress: No such file or directory
gcc: /usr/local/lib/libgslcblas.0.dylib: No such file or directory
gcc: 1: No such file or directory
gcc: 1.0: No such file or directory
gcc: unrecognized option `-compatibility_version'
gcc: unrecognized option `-current_version'

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Solaris 2.7 and 2.8 with gcc-2.95.3:

gcc -shared  sasum.lo ... xerbla.lo  -L/usr/local/lib -lm -lc -Wl,-rpath -Wl,-soname -Wl,libgslcblas.so.0 -o .libs/libgslcblas.so.0.0.0

/usr/local/sparc-sun-solaris2.7/bin/ld: cannot open libgslcblas.so.0: No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [libgslcblas.la] Error 1

I tried a restart with a newer version of libtool, that failed as
well:

make LIBTOOL=/usr/local/bin/libtool
/usr/ccs/bin/ld -G -h libgslcblas.so.0 -o .libs/libgslcblas.so.0.0.0 sasum.lo ... xerbla.lo  -L/usr/local/lib -lm -lc  -rpath

ld: fatal: option -dn and -h are incompatible
ld: fatal: option -dn and -P are incompatible
ld: fatal: option -dn and -G are incompatible
ld: fatal: Flags processing errors
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Compaq Alpha OSF/1 5.1:

The herm tests all fail (gcc 2.9-gnupro-99r1), but that
is from a known gcc code-generation error.  However, I
also got this failure:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I..    -mieee -mfp-rounding-mode=d -g -O2 -c test_rotg.c
mips-tfile, /tmp/cc0u7O0L.s:8107 Invalid .stabs/.stabn directive, value not found
line:	 #.stabs "c_expected:V12",38,0,120,$LC46

If I use "make -i check", then the tests proceed, and
and I get 53716 passes.

Thanks.  I'll just have to note these since I dont' have any fix for
them.  Shared libraries are a problem on non GNU platforms but the
static libraries from ./configure --disable-shared usually work.
