[Rd] [Old '.so' file

I noticed the same thing as I reported below, when I upgraded from
R-2.0.0-alpha-20040918 to today's beta version: 

'R CMD check' failed as before; but after cleaning 'src' from .o and .so
files, it worked again. So the two-day-old '.so' file is obviously different
from today's. Has compiler directives changed in the two last days? Or what
is happening?
