Summary: build error on 0.3.6 cannot find -lRlapack

Initial Comment:
I've successfu0lly built and used rkward-0.3.5.  I was
trying to create a Gentoo ebuild package file for
rkward 0.3.6 so that upgrades would be easier, and
distribution of rkward would be greater.  From both the
ebuild and from trying to build from a shell, the build
fails with the following:

make[3]: *** [rkward.bin] Error 1

I think that lib Rlapack is missing.  I'm wondering if
this is something configured wrong in the build
configuration. 

I'm using R-2.2.1 with blas and lapack support compiled in.

I'm using lapack-3.0, and blas-19980702-r2.

When I look for lapack libraries that could be linked
with rkward, I see:

/usr/lib/R/modules/lapack.so
/usr/lib/liblapack.a
/usr/lib/lapack
/usr/lib/lapack/atlas
/usr/lib/lapack/atlas/liblapack.so.0
/usr/lib/lapack/atlas/liblapack.so.0.0.0
/usr/lib/lapack/atlas/liblapack.so
/usr/lib/lapack/atlas/liblapack.la
/usr/lib/lapack/atlas/liblapack.a
/usr/lib/lapack/current
/usr/lib/lapack/f77-ATLAS
/usr/lib/liblapack.so
/usr/lib/liblapack.so.0

So, I suspect that rkward probably needs 
/usr/lib/R/modules/lapack.so (what else could Rlapack
be?).  I tried a symbolic link from 
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/R/modules/lapack.so
/usr/lib/Rlapack.so 
but that didn't do it.

I'll try to look deeper into the code at issue, but any
assistance would be appreciated.

Regards,
