Hi Gunther,

I don't know whether it helps, but those unresolved references are
supposed to be there (they point to items in the main R binary) and be
resolved at dyn.load time. That is usually allowed when using the
-shared switch to gcc, although some systems (notably AIX and Win32)
require you use an explicit import library generated from the R
binary.
