I am writing this mail to keep a record of certain information. Most of you
can ignore this. The issue was:

in short: RkWard couldn't be compiled on 64bit architecture (Red Hat EL4 and
amd64)
in details: see the thread here:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=4392952

It has been about 2.5 months since I did the following to make rkward compile:

$ cd /usr/lib
$ sudo ln -s libgfortran.so.2 libgfortran.so 

Finally, today I removed this soft link (sudo rm /usr/lib/libgfortran.so) and
compiled rkward (both the current svn version and 0.4.8pre2). Surprisingly the
'make' process went fine :) Which means RkWard can be compiled on a 64bit machine
without any tinkering. The machine in my case is a Debian/Sid amd64. I do not
know if the earlier issue was due to the linker (ld) or R or RkWard.

Cheers,
PK
