Compilation fails (PR#209)

I started 'configure' with the f2c- and without the g77-Option and used 
/usr/ccs/bin/make instead of gmake (very flexible, isn't it ;) 

  C compiler:               gcc -g -O2
  FORTRAN compiler:         f2c 

The modreg-directory is now compiled without any error.

But while processing the mva-directory:

mkdir ../../../library/mva/R
gcc -g -O2 -fPIC -I../../../../include -c dblcen.c -o dblcen.o
ld -G -o mva.so dblcen.o hclust.o kmns.o
ld: fatal: file hclust.o: cannot open file; errno=2
ld: fatal: file kmns.o: cannot open file; errno=2
ld: fatal: File processing errors.  No output written to mva.so
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `mva.so'
Current working directory /sw/sun4_55/R-0.65.0/src/library/mva/src
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all'


What happens here? I compiled R 0.63.0 without any problem....
