R-beta: multiple binary types

[Gregory R. Warnes]

I've modified the "$RHOME/bin/R" and "$RHOME/cmd/filename" so that you 
can use the same directories for multiple machines.  That is, machines 
running various flavors of UNIX can access the same directories.

The modified structure adds the directories

$RHOME/bin/$OSTYPE/
$RHOME/lib/$OSTYPE/

to hold the machine specific binaries.

For instance, here the $RHOME directory contains two subdirectories,

$RHOME/bin/solaris/
$RHOME/bin/sunos4/

which each hold the appropriate R.binary file.  

These two modified functions assume that the environment variable $OSTYPE 
is appropriately set, as is done automatically by the shell tcsh.  If it 
is not set, the directory names collapse to the original values,
	$RHOME/bin/ and $RHOME/lib/

To use them, create the approprate directories and place the correct 
binaries therein. ( Note that the makefiles will not do this 
automatically!)  Then replace $RHOME/bin/R and $RHOME/cmd/filename with 
the modified ones.
