Attached is a script, UPDATELIBS, that does much of the work of converting
R packages/librares to the current format.  I've just used it to add
packages from my R-0.50-alpha-4 to R-0.61 (from the debian package
Douglass Bates just made available). 

It takes a list of package names/directories as parameters and does the
following:
  - renames $PACKAGE/funs to $PACKAGE/R
  - converts $PACKAGE/man/* to $PACKAGE/man/*.Rd using $RHOME/etc/Rman2Rd
  - compiles any C and FORTRAN functions in $PACKAGE/src and
    $PACKAGE/src-c using R COMPILE
  - creates a shared library from the resulting objects using R SHLIB and
  - installs the package using R INSTALL

Its pretty simple-minded, and I've done little error-handling except to
assure that the appropriate $PACKAGE/* directories exist .  Finally,
UPDATELIBS assumes that it is run in the parent directory of the package
file(s), (ie $PACKAGE/.. ) . 

I hope someone finds it useful.
